June 1-4 - Final Parent Smore

Our counselors have been busy creating schedules and ensuring everything is set for the upcoming school year. Student schedules have been completed; however, they will not be available to view in PowerSchool until the end of July. Printed copies of schedules will be available for pickup at Buc Camp on August 5th.

The district notified the campus that schedules will not be updated until counselors return July 29th. Thank you so much for your patience! Please continue to check Powerschool for full schedules.

Where Everybody Belongs is an initiative tied to district initiatives for Social Emotional learning opportunities. The goal is to create a space to welcome incoming 6th grade students and partner them with nominated 8th grade students. This initiative is an extension of our "advisory" period.

For questions regarding the new WEB program, please contact the IB Coordinator, Ms. Andrea Bollin at abollin@dallasisd.org.

During the month of June, Dallas ISD employees work Monday-Thursday with campuses closed each Friday.

Here are summer schedules for the following employees:

• Counselors - last day on campus is Thursday, June 4th
• Assistant Principal - last day on campus is Thursday, June 11th
• Principal - last day on campus is Thursday, June 25th

Thank you to all parents who have reached out to us for feedback and clarity. While purses and backpacks must be clear or mesh, personal hygiene pouches within the 4 inch by 6 inch guidelines do not need to be clear. We want to respect privacy and provide care for all of our students with hygiene pouches.

A friendly reminder to please register your student(s) for the 2026-2027 school year using the link below. This is very helpful for school leadership as they work on classes and teacher needs for the J.L. Long campus.

If you weren’t able to stop by the school on June 3rd or 4th, don't worry! We have set aside an alternate time for you to collect your student's final report card.

• Final Pick-Up Date: Monday, June 8th

• Time: 1:00 PM – 2:00 PM

• Location: Front Office Vestibule

• Yondr Pouches: If your student did not turn in their Yondr pouch, their report card will be held until the $20 replacement fee is received. Our office staff will be happy to assist you with this payment when you come to pick up the report card on Monday.

If you have any questions or cannot make this new time slot, please contact the main office at 972-502-4700.

Our annual 6th grade Buc Camp will be held on Wednesday, August 5th from 9 am to noon at J.L. Long. This year, we are excited to host Buc Camp for our rising 7th and 8th graders on our campus from 1:30-3 pm. Our end time has been updated to 3 pm due to badge scheduling.

Our goal is to provide parents a chance to meet teachers, talk with counselors, and for students to have ID badge photos taken in preparation for the first day of school. Thank you PTA for your support in the planning process.
