🚧 Summer Renovation Update! 🚧
Exciting things are happening at Long Elementary! This summer, our hallways are getting new low-maintenance vinyl flooring, classrooms are receiving new carpet, and kindergarten and the art room will be updated with vinyl flooring.
We're also creating a fourth "right-sized" kindergarten classroom. Finally, we are adding cubbies to classrooms that don't currently have them to increase functionality and storage for students.
All this summer work means our teachers packed up all their classrooms and EVERYTHING was moved into our new gym.
We can't wait to share more progress as we continue transforming our school!
