Children, Inc.'s Extended Kindergarten Program at Stephens Elementary School is now enrolling for the 2018 - 2019 school year.
New Immunizations Required for 18-19 School Year
1. Your child has had the series.
2. If so, determine if it is reflected on the immunization record. The forms were recently changed to reflect this series so the form we have on file may not be accurate. Your safest bet is to get a copy of your child's form from the doctor and send us a copy.
3. If not, schedule the first shot now.

Kroger Cards Help Generate BIG MONEY for Our School
Kroger donates 4% of all money you spend after you scan your Kroger Plus card as long as you connect the Plus card to our Longbranch PTA account.
If 400 families connected their cards and spent $100 a week at Kroger, each family would make $4 per week. That's $1600 a week. That's $19,000 a quarter. That's unreal. That's plain and simple easy money.
We encourage you to visit Kroger.com and create an account. Click Community Rewards. Search for Longbranch and connect your plus card with Longbranch PTA. It's the EASIEST fundraiser you'll ever participate in, period.
