Summer 2022
Longfellow Elementary
From All of Us at Longfellow....
We hope you have an amazing summer and look forward to seeing you in the fall. Remember to make good choices as you are always representing Longfellow lions.
A word from Longfellow
- My halls are quiet.
- My walls are bare.
- Not a student to be found anywhere.
- I will miss the smiles.
- No laughter will I hear.
- But I will see you all next year!

Congratulations!!
Congratulations to Longfellow Lion, Gabby Garrels, on receiving the Longfellow Scholarship. We are proud of you, Gabby, and wish you the best as you start the next chapter!
Visitors from Under the Sea!
Ms. Jean Patrick came to speak with our lions about Mitchell Public Library's Summer Reading Program. Please see the information below regarding their reading program. Your kids won't want to miss out on the fun!
Thank you to the Williamson family for their handmade gift of Longfellow Lion string art! Thank you for sharing your talent and hard work!
Caring Kernel Award
The Mitchell School District, The Caring Closet, Harve's Sport Shop, and Sun Gold Sports, have recognized students for going above-and-beyond helping classmates, showing kindness to others at school, and having a positive attitude. While many of our lions could have received this award, the following students were chosen to receive a special t-shirt. Congratulations and thank you for being such fine representatives of Longfellow!
Cruz Lingemann; Londyn Schoenfelder; Jordyn Charging Hawk; Hazel Bunkers; Harper Kayser; Edgar Uribe Santana; Lakynn Eldeen; Audric Standing Cloud; Karver Mast; Jack Giblin; Awa'ska Miller; Gabi Magnuson; Adley Crago; Caleb Castillo; Avery Eldeen; Reilly Covey; Emma Sperlich; Erickson Spino
All 5th grade band members from Longfellow, LB Williams and Gertie Belle Rogers practiced together and performed. What a fun sneak peak at what will become the Mitchell Middle School band.
Summer Band Opportunity!
If you attended the 5th grade band concert, you know tat Mr. Stahle talked about and the direct link to register if your child is interested in playing in either or both of the summer bands.
There is no cost to participate, and this will be a cool experience to get to play with older students and work with Mr. Stahle and Mr. Van Peursem! What a great opportunity to have fun making music this summer!
Willy-Wonka music concert
First Day of School

First Day of School (Current and new familes)
As we all look forward to a summer of fun, memories and relaxation, the staff of Longfellow will look forward to seeing you all again in August.
If you know of anyone who moves to town during the summer, please make sure they contact our district registrar, Erica, who works at the McTea building (across the street from the high school). The sooner they contact Erica, the sooner we can get them in the system so we're ready for each and every student on day one!

As our 5th graders prepared to move on from Longfellow, they each wrote what they wanted to be when they grow up. We have future veterinarians, farmers, NFL players, Youtubers, etc. However, one young man wants to be Someone Who Changes The World.
That is our wish for each and every 5th grader. Go forward and be someone who makes a positive difference. Love others, help others, be grateful, and work hard. None of those things cost you a dime. We have no doubt you will change the world! You are always a lion and you are always loved!

Have a terrific summer!!
