Learning Comes Alive When You Experience it Live

Updated Wed, Sep 12th

Please join us in helping students form the good attendance habits.

Children can copy notes or make up an assignment, but they can never get back what’s most important: the discussions, the questions, the explanations by the teacher, and the thinking that makes learning come alive.

We are asking that all families join us in helping students form the good attendance habits—being present each day and on time—that will help them succeed in school and beyond.

Attend Today, Achieve Tomorrow!

September is Attendance Awareness month

Updated Fri, Sep 7th

At our Back To School Night event, your teachers went over the importance of being at school everyday, on time. Starting as early as TK, poor attendance can affect academics. When students are at school on time, not only are they building good habits for their future, but it also allows for socialization with friends and in some cases, a chance to eat breakfast. I've attached an article below, in English and in Spanish, about ways to support good attendance habits. Thank you for working to help all students succeed.

Coffee With The Principal 9/12

Updated Thu, Sep 6th

Please stop by and join us for a cup of coffee after you drop off your students next Wednesday, September 12th from 8:15-9:15 am in the cafeteria. We’ll be discussing the SeeSaw parent app, the Five Competencies of a CUSD graduate, and our AVID path to success! We hope to see you there!

Attendance Matters

Updated Wed, Sep 5th

Attending school regularly helps children feel better about school and themselves.

Missing just two days a month means a child misses 10% of the school year. That's 10% less learning, smiling, growing, and achieving.

Attend Today. Achieve Tomorrow.

Living Classroom Volunteers Needed

Updated Thu, Sep 6th

Living Classroom is taking root at Lynhaven School, providing 7 lessons to TK-3 students in September and October, with many more to come! The hands-on, inquiry based science, math, nutrition and social studies lessons take place in school gardens which provide a living laboratory where lessons are drawn from real-life experiences. All TK-3 teachers are participating. Lesson topics this fall include:

human impact on their environment
recording measurements of plants
understand the relationship between numbers and quantities
adaptations of plants and/or animals for survival
photosynthesis
producers and consumers
functions of parts of plants
decomposition and how nature recycles
using the scientific method in a real live experiment to test a hypothesis
habitats
making bar graphs to represent data
nutrition and healthy eating—fruits, vegetables and whole grains

The Program is seeking interested volunteers to be trained as docents or assistant docents or work with our garden manager to maintain the educational gardens. Docent training sessions start on Monday, September 10th from 2 p.m. – 5 p.m. and September 17th from 2 p.m. – 5 p.m. at Capri Elementary School, Room C-6. There will be an informational meeting on 8/30 from 9:00-10:00 in the Lynhaven Cafeteria.

For more information about the Living Classroom and to learn more about volunteering, contact the Living Classroom Campbell Program Manager Stefani Brandt at shawns [at] living-classroom.org or call 408-500-9911 and visit the website at www.living-classroom.org.
