Tomorrow (Fri. 5/23/25) is the last day of the school year! Cross your fingers the rain stays away so we can be outside. Students will need tennis shoes and must have socks to go on the inflatables. Dress in layers as it might be chilly.

Our Lions are watching Stuart Little, the book we read earlier this year for our One School, One Book event. So many fun memories are being made in the last week of the year.

Our paras were treated to special drinks today. Hopefully they have caffeine in them to help these amazing individuals get through the last 2 days of the school year. Longfellow is so proud of our paras, as a school simply cannot run without their care, knowledge, dedication and hard work. Paras create meaningful bonds with our students and help them in immeasurable ways. Their work is not easy but they do it with a smile!


Leo agrees, cold temps and rain aren't the best mix for field trips! Our teachers are doing an amazing job of thinking flexibly and rearranging plans for fun activities and field trips. Remember that we have activities planned each day and they may require shoes or being outside (if it's not pouring rain). So, dress in layers, bring a jacket, and have your children wear tennis shoes so they can join in on all of the fun! Let's make the last few days of the 24-25 school year the BEST!


We have SO many fun activities planned!! Tomorrow, our students will be doing some walking. Please have them wear appropriate shoes. Thank you!


Thank you for making Teacher Appreciation Week such a fun week. We had full bellies every day, mailboxes full of special treats, a walk of fame in the hallway, notes, signs, and hugs from little arms each day. What more could a person ask for?


Thank you, Walmart, for the delicious cake and candy treat bags today! We feel the love!!

Tomorrow, May 7th, The Palace City Pedalers, will be recognizing the AWESOMENESS of riding your bike to school! Do not be alarmed when you see a few people in front of the school as students arrive, handing out stickers and recognizing bicycle riders. No matter how our Lions get to school each morning, we celebrate each and every one of them and thank you for sharing them with us!


Remember that on field trip days, the buses leave promptly first thing in the morning. They can not wait for tardy students. There are so many fun things happening, we wouldn't want our Lions to miss out!


Things will be getting very busy. Our newsletter is a great way to stay on top of it all. You can also reach out to your classroom teacher via See-Saw or Dojo.
