A Message from Your PTA President
​Jennifer Von Elm

Welcome to the wonderful Longfellow community where inspiring excellence is a tradition. ​Congratulations to the entire Longfellow community for winning the 2018 Governor’s Award for Educational Excellence. Longfellow has earned this honor for 10 of the last eleven years. It is one of 14 schools in Virginia to receive this honor for 2018. The entire community, including our parents, had a role in this achievement.
 
The Longfellow PTA is proud to contribute to our community through our dedicated parents who volunteer at PTA events, lend their talents in numerous ways, and support the PTA through their generous donations.
 
Our 2018 Support Excellence Campaign looks to provide grants for the teachers, purchase classroom supplies, replace library computers, provide teacher appreciation events throughout the year, replace five smart boards, and host speakers for parents on topics important to our community.  We hope to raise $60,000 to fully fund all of these programs. To reach that goal we are asking each family to contribute $150, if possible, and donations of any size are appreciated.
 
I look forward to meeting many families throughout the year and I can be reached at president.ptalms@gmail.com. Together we can inspire and support excellence at Longfellow.
 
Warm Regards,
 
Jennifer Von Elm
PTA President
