Long Branch has been a neighborhood school since 1973 and its Pre-K to grade five students reflect Arlington’s diverse and changing population. Long Branch uses the “Responsive Classroom Approach,” allowing all children to be part of a caring community in which social and academic learning are fully integrated throughout the school day, and in which students are nurtured to become strong ethical thinkers. Long Branch staff commits to getting to know each student as an individual and strives to provide a positive, engaging, and enriching environment in which all students are active participants and show continuous progress.
Long Branch’s achievements are the results of a focused, hard-working staff, a dedicated group of students, and a parent community that values education and supports the school’s programs. The school’s fine arts and performing arts programs are among the most dynamic in Arlington, making annual concerts and musicals popular community events.
