Longs Creek Elementary School - North East ISD

What a beautiful day celebrating our Kindergarten graduates! 🎓💙 We are so proud of all they have learned, the friendships they’ve made, and the growth we’ve watched this year.
A huge thank you to our amazing families for your love, support, and partnership throughout the year. We couldn’t do it without you!
Just like that, our little Kindergarteners are ready for 1st grade! 📚✨

Our Kindergarteners had an absolute blast at Field Day on Friday! ☀️🎉 From relay races and scooter racing to lots of laughs and cheering on friends, it was a day full of fun, teamwork, and memories made together. We are so proud of our little Cowboys for showing great sportsmanship and BIG smiles all day long! 💙

This morning we celebrated one of our favorite traditions — our annual senior breakfast and final walk through the halls of Longs Creek Elementary School. ❤️🎓
Watching these seniors walk the same halls they once walked as little Cowboys was such a special and emotional moment for our students and staff. From tiny backpacks and first-day tears to caps, gowns, and graduation smiles… what an incredible journey it has been.
Our current students cheered them on with so much excitement, looking up to the Class of 2026 and dreaming about the day they’ll take that same walk. It’s a reminder that no matter how much time passes, Longs Creek will always be a part of their story.
To the Class of 2026 — congratulations! We are so proud of all you have accomplished and can’t wait to see where life takes you next. Always remember that once a Cowboy, always a Cowboy. 🤠💙

Dress like a 5th grader! Our 5th grade team showed some awesome 5th grade style!

This month, we are celebrating two amazing fifth grade leaders as our Super Star Students: Sara and Devin

During a Special Board Meeting on Monday, May 18, the North East ISD Board of Trustees named Interim Superintendent Anthony Jarrett as the Lone Finalist for Superintendent.

“He has maintained a strong commitment to student success, academic excellence and community partnerships,” said Board President David Beyer. “We are confident that his leadership, experience, and vision will help guide our District forward, toward continued growth and opportunity for all staff students and families.”

Jarrett brings more than 25 years of experience in public education including six years with NEISD. He previously served as the District’s Chief Instructional Officer before being named Interim Superintendent in December of last year. Prior to joining North East ISD in 2019, Jarrett served as a teacher, principal and assistant superintendent in Northside ISD.

Following the announcement, Jarrett shared his gratitude to the board and enthusiasm for this next chapter.

“Sitting in this role is a humbling experience,” said Jarrett. “The mindset of service first and self second is something that I fundamentally believe in. I think working alongside you guys, I know our District will continue to grow, get better and be one of the best districts in the country.”

Per state mandate, NEISD trustees must wait at least 21 days before officially voting to appoint Jarrett as our District’s newest Superintendent.

Our 2nd graders had a SUPER time celebrating Superkids Day! 🦸📚 They dressed up as their favorite Superkids characters and shared the joy of reading by visiting our Kindergarten classes to read some of their favorite stories.

The Kindergarteners loved listening to the big kids read, and our 2nd graders did an amazing job showing their love of books and reading! What a fun day full of imagination, confidence, and literacy! ❤️📖

Today was nacho average day in first grade! Our LC first graders were soup-er excited to host Reading Restaurant for their hungry guests. Many stories were devoured and smiles exchanged. First grade is kind of a big dill! 😉

Our Kindergarteners wrapped up their amazing plant unit in the most fun (and delicious) way… by “eating a plant!” 🥦🌱🍅

We explored all the different parts of a plant using healthy foods:
🥦 Broccoli for the flower
🥬 Spinach for the leaf
🥒 Celery for the stem
🌻 Sunflower seeds for the seeds
🥕 Carrots for the roots
🍅 Tomato for the fruit

What a fun, hands-on way to learn about plants while enjoying a healthy snack too! 💚
