Based on our teachers’ school supply lists, School-Pak will pre-package all the supplies your child needs for the school year so you don’t have to go shopping around to find everything! The supplies will be delivered directly to Longbranch Elementary later this Summer and will be waiting for your child in their classrooms at Meet the Teacher Night in August.

We still need a lot of photos for our 2017-18 Longbranch Yearbook! Any events/activities/day to day school photos that you have from this school year would be greatly appreciated!
If you have trouble with the online upload site, please feel free to email photos instead to longbranchyearbook@gmail.com.
Our yearbook coordinator cannot be at all the awesome events that go on with our students throughout the year and needs your help in making sure we get a large variety of kids and activities included in the book!
You can upload your photos for consideration in the yearbook at community.lifetouch.com and entering our school’s access code: XJFDJE.
Please submit photos that are at least 300 dpi to ensure acceptable print quality for the yearbook.

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.
