Longfellow Choice PTA Welcomes You!
Volunteer/Membership Information
Mission Statement: To encourage and support a positive school environment for our students, staff, families and community as we strive to be advocates for programs and policies that nurture youth and education.
What is the PTA? Whether you are a parent, a teacher or a student, you are a member of our PTA! The Longfellow Choice PTA supports many enrichment opportunities that take place in our school. The Longfellow PTA has supported:
Meet the teacher night
Yearly fund for classroom teachers
Extra instructional materials (IXL, Raz Kids, iPads and Apps)
Family fun (Luau, Quarry Hill Family Night, Family Movie Night, All Star Moms, All Pro Dads, Carnival, Silent Auction)
Summer Bookmobile Playdates
Longfellow student clubs (Chorus, Jump Rope Team, Tech Club)
Scholarships (Eagle Bluff, Yearbook)
We organize several activities that help raise money for our school: Box Tops for Education, Labels for Education, My Coke Rewards, SCRIP program, Integrity Fundraiser, Silent Auction/Carnival, Haunted Hallways, Longfellow Rummage Sale, and the Scholastic Book Fair. These activities would not happen without the support of our parent volunteers!

It is an expectation that all parents take an active role in their child’s educational experience. We request that you find time to volunteer at Longfellow through PTA sponsored events or in your child’s classroom. Parents will receive e-mails regarding volunteer opportunities available throughout the school year. It is our hope that all parents will find a few activities that fit into your family’s schedule and your interests.
