Long Creek Elementary School is a community and creative arts magnet school located in northern Mecklenburg County. It has a rich history that dates back to 1923.
When the school was built in 1923, it housed first through eleventh grades and became an elementary school during the 1950’s. The school then grew to five older buildings as well as our new facility which opened in August 2009 and is located on 23 acres of land.
Currently, Long Creek has approximately 540 students enrolled in kindergarten through fifth grade. There are 25 classroom teachers and several support staff members (Encore, English Learner, Exceptional Children, and Talent Development Teachers as well as Instructional Assistants. In 2018 Long Creek became a Creative Arts Magnet school in partnership with A+ Schools. As a Creative Arts Magnet, students are exposed to the arts in their Encore classes and classroom teachers use the arts to teach core curriculum.
The Parent-Teacher Organization (PTO) provides significant monetary and volunteer resources to the school. We are fortunate to have a strong, active base of parents and community volunteers. Parents are encouraged to volunteer through a variety of opportunities provided by the school itself and the PTO. Together, they offer many ways to provide valuable service to Long Creek School. Below is a list of some ways our volunteers are involved: beautification, book fair, corporate sponsor, hospitality, room parents, classroom volunteers, tutoring, school spirit, and staff appreciation.
