Deja mucho q desear los maestros no les interesa si nuestros hijos aprenden y no hay comunicación con los padres de familia

The faculty and staff are very friendly and PTA is very much involved with collaborating with the staff for school projects and activities.

My oldest son loved Longfellow. Teachers and staff are wonderful! My daughter is in Kinder and she has learned how to read better this year. We love our Longfellow community

My oldest transferred in 3rd grade and my youngest started in K in the special needs program and I wish I had gone there sooner! I really like the support that the PTA and school have combined to give the students a great start almost rivials a private school. Don’t look at the ratings, go and visit and see how warm this school really is. Also

My school is Longfellow E.S. and though it was never one of my choices when I signed up my daughter it certainly became my favorite school. All the work Ms Matsuno did at Longfellow still shows. The teachers are caring, my daughter was blessed with great teachers that we both admire and love very much! Great work Logfellow

Longfellow was a top school in 2006. Now 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students cannot even solve basic math problems. They also lack basic grammar and language skills. These students appear to lack basic skills. They appear unable to add, subtract, multiply and/or divide problems involving decimals, fractions, and percentages. Teachers are not making sure the students leave with a solid foundation for middle school. If nothing changes, our kids will continue to fall behind.. Students now, leave their 3-4-5th grades functioning at a lower level than when they began! Many teachers are not following core curriculum guidelines for these grades. STARS test scores have dropped. These kids speak English, language is not an excuse. The school must take responsibility for the education of our children. Longfellow has failed to successfully educate our children
