Teacher Appreciation Week

The Little Mermaid Jr.

The Long Hill Mustang Chorus under the direction of Mrs. Anna Bunn presented The Little Mermaid Jr. musical on April 25 and 26 at Long Hill Elementary School. Approximately 115  chorus students and 5 prop and sound men (students) helped to make the 2 evenings very successful. All of the students worked extremely hard and the Long Hill auditorium was filled both nights. Funding for the musical included a Walmart Grant, PTA and and many parents. Thanks to all who help make this production possible.

Puppet Show

April was the month of the military child. As a special thanks to all the military affiliated students (Club USA), Sgt. Mike’s Dance Warehouse presented a Puppet Show. Students were entertained by several puppets as they talked to the students, played exciting  music and danced around. It was a very awesome show!

Check out the AR Widgets that are now available by clicking on the Renaissance Learning icon. You can see how many books Long Hill Elementary students have read today, this week, this month and this school year!

Volunteer Tea

Long Hill honored our school volunteers with a ‘English High Tea” on April 26. Staff members provided the delicious lunch menu items. Beta Club students served and Chorus students sang for the volunteers. Volunteers are greatly appreciated. Thanks for your dedication and many hours spent at Long Hill.

Sherry Miller

In an effort to provide support for our county, the Cumberland County Bar Association provided speakers from the legal profession to help commemorate Law  Day on 25 April. This year’s theme, “Realizing the Dream: Equality for All,” focused on ways to provide equality for all U.S. citizens.  Sherry Miller, an attorney, visited Long Hill and presented a PowerPoint presentation, including a simulation activity to the 5th graders. She also answered questions from the students.
