68% of our Longfellow families have completed their Family File! Thank you!
Unfortunately, 32% of our families have not updated their Family File. The early closing last Wednesday illustrated the importance of a completed Family File! Safety is very important, and many students were unable to provide the necessary information, especially if it has been changed. Thank you for your help!
