Dear Lynhaven Families, 

While it easy to be caught up in the rush of morning drop-off and afternoon pick-up, we ask that you always prioritize safety. Drivers need to follow all the rules of the road, including the posted School Zone speed limit of 25 mph. 

Just as you want drivers to be safe near your homes, our Lynhaven neighbors ask that all of our drivers are safe near their homes. 

Every instructional minute does count. No instructional minutes count more than each of us doing our part to keep the community safe. 

Want to report unsafe driving or traffic violations on the city streets near school? Please report them to the City of San Jose at (408) 277-8900. Want to request a speed monitor from the City of San Jose? Please contact them at (408) 535-3850

In partnership,

Ms. Callaway-Wilson,

Principal

Greetings Lynhaven Families, 

We cant believe another school year has passed us by! Whether this has been your first, second, or plus school year at Lynhaven we have enjoyed all the families, memories and growth. 

In preparation for the following school year, each year towards the end we ask families if their student(s) will be returning. 

As circumstances can change, please note that we send out this questionnaire twice. This will be the first. A second questionnaire will be asked again at the beginning of 2024-2025. 

What? Please fill out this questionnaire by May 22nd.
Why? This helps us prepare for next school year! The more accurate our enrollment the less changes and the less shuffling happens with students and staff placement.

Thank you for your support!

Kindly,
Ms. Bianca
Lynhaven Administrative Assistant
