Longleaf Clubs & Activities

Welcome to Longleaf Elementary's PBIS Branch system! We're rooted in a school-wide commitment to fostering a positive and supportive learning environment. Our five distinct branches—Cedar, Palm, Magnolia, Totara, and Camellia—each embody a unique core value. Students are sorted into these branches and work together to earn points for demonstrating our school's values of respect, responsibility, and readiness. This system builds a strong sense of community and provides positive reinforcement, creating a school where every student can thrive.

Their mascot, the peacock, perfectly symbolizes the spirit of the Cedar Branch. With its vibrant, fanned tail, the peacock embodies pride—not just in accomplishments, but in one's effort, character, and the respectful way they interact with others.
