G.W. Long PTO

Huge thank you to all of the amazing local businesses that donated prizes for our PTO Prize Patrol! Because of your generosity, we were able to spend the day surprising our teachers and staff with fun giveaways.

We are so grateful for businesses that continue to support our school, our teachers, and our students. Please help us thank them by supporting the businesses that support our community. Small towns show up for each other, and last week was such a great reminder of that. ❤️🖤

🎶❄️Alright stop…collaborate and listen ❄️🎶

Day 1 of Teacher Appreciation Week = ICE ICE BABY and we kicked it off the coolest way we know how!

More 90s fun coming all week… stay tuned!

📼Teacher Appreciation Week…90s style📼

Our teachers have been all that and a bag of chips this year, showing up for our kids day in and day out.
This week, it’s our turn to give them their moment in the spotlight and good news: it doesn’t have to be big or over-the-top.

Check out the graphic below for easy ways your child can make their teacher’s day!

💌 A quick note (short, sweet, & from the heart)
🌸 A small surprise
🗣️ A genuine “thank you”

Let’s make it a week our teachers will always remember because they’ve definitely made a difference for our kids.

🍎 Duty-Free Lunch Volunteers Needed! 🍎

As part of Teacher Appreciation Week, we’re treating our teachers to a duty-free lunch on Thursday, May 7 and we need your help to make it happen!

We’re looking for parent volunteers to step in and watch students during lunch so our teachers can relax, eat, and enjoy a well-deserved break.

Even giving a little of your time makes a big difference. Let’s show our teachers how much we appreciate them!

Happy Administrative Professionals Day to the real MVPs of our schools, our amazing secretaries and bookkeeper!

They answer a million questions a day, keep everything running behind the scenes, and somehow still manage to smile through it all.

From wrangling paperwork and phone calls to keeping us all in line (yes, parents and PTO included), we truly don’t know what we’d do without them.

If you’ve ever needed a form, forgotten something, shown up confused, or just needed saving, they’ve been there.

Today we celebrate the ones who keep the chaos organized! We appreciate you more than you know! ❤️🖤
