Longfellow Principal's Corner

2020-21 School Year Welcome Letter

August 5, 2021

Dear Longfellow Families:

Welcome to the 2021-2022 School Year! The teachers and staff of Longfellow School are very much looking forward to greeting your child in person. Thank you for your patience and continued support as our district has been slowly receiving back to school guidance from the NMPED on COVID safety. You may access the NMPED Toolkit and mask guidance at https://webnew.ped.state.nm.us/back-to-school-guidance/.

Here are the highlights for your Longfellow Elementary student:

All students, staff, and visitors are required to wear face masks while on the school campus, on the bus, and at school sponsored events. Students will not be required to wear masks outdoors during recess. Masks will be provided if students arrive at school without one.
Social distancing will be required and implemented to the greatest extent possible.
Increased cleaning and sanitizing of school facilities will continue.
We will continue to send notification to families if we have anyone who was infectious with COVID-19 while on campus.

As always, please feel free to contact the school with any specific questions or concerns. You may also follow us on Facebook - Longfellow School - for updates throughout the school year.
Our district is pleased to offer an online registration process for new and returning students in the PowerSchool Parent Portal. Please create your Parent Portal account to complete your child’s registration forms in the FORMS tab. You will also be able to check your child’s attendance and provide information updates throughout the school year in the forms tab.

We are looking forward to a year of success for all students! Thank you for your continued support for your child’s best academic experience.

Sincerely,

Kimberly Sanchez
Principal, Longfellow Elementary School
