We are aware of an issue involving student email and accounts. This means that students may not be able to access their email, Clever, MobyMax, etc.

We are working on a resolution. We hope to have access restored quickly.

Long students will have access to Capstone throughout the summer. This site has many ebooks for students to enjoy based on their interest and level. Here is the link to Capstone.

Our 4th and 5th graders have been chosen to be part of a study on health and physical activity conducted through Wayne State University. An opt out slip will be sent home. If you DO NOT want your child to participate in the study, the sheet should be signed and returned. If their participation is ok, you do not need to send the slip back.

Huge thank you to Mr. Maki and the Masons organization for sponsoring the Bikes for Books incentive. Many Long students participated. Bike winners Chelsea and Rashid were very grateful and excited!

Long School was excited to have over 25 students participate in this year’s Mini-Martian Marathon. We hope they have all dried out by now. Thank you to Mr. Tapp with support from Ms. Little for providing this opportunity.

Mr. James Thorpe of the Dearborn School Board joined us to read several stories to Kindergarten and First Grade students. Everyone was highly engaged and entertained!

This week our Long School Recycling Committee visited classrooms to further educate students as to the importance of recycling. Students used a presentation they worked collaboratively to create, along with an informative essay written by one of the members.

We want to thank all the hard working Engineers, Custodians, and staff members in the Operations and Grounds Department for putting in many extra hours this weekend to clear school parking lots and sidewalks.

We also want to extend a thank you to all the crews at the City of Dearborn who have been working hard all weekend to clear streets in our city.

After checking road conditions, talking with the City of Dearborn, and having discussions with our Transportation Department the District does not anticipate any wide spread problems or delays.

However, with the amount of snowfall and cold temperatures, conditions may exist on a few side streets that require slower then normal and extra cautious driving. Please be advised that these conditions may cause some buses to run a bit behind schedule on Monday.

Bundle up and see you in school on Monday!
