Our school was alive with color, culture, and community during our recent Multicultural Voyage Around the World—a celebration of the rich diversity that makes our community so special.

Students had the chance to "travel" to other countries and get their passport stamped  while learning about cultures from around the globe. It was a day full of learning, laughter, and discovery.

This unforgettable experience would not have been possible without the incredible support of our families. We are deeply grateful to the parents and caregivers who volunteered their time, creativity, and heart to bring each culture to life. 

Our Community Liaison, Ms. Noelia Smith, was key to making this event possible. Thank you Ms. Noelia for helping our students see the world through new eyes!

Thank You for the Appreciation!

We are deeply grateful for all the love and kindness shown during Teacher & Staff Appreciation Week. From heartfelt notes to thoughtful gestures, every act—big or small—meant the world to us. Even a simple kind word made a lasting impact.

Dear Lynx Families,

May is a month that celebrates creativity—and what better time to honor the most inspiring creators of all: our teachers and school staff!
Next week is Teacher and Staff Appreciation Week, a special time to recognize the heart, dedication, and imagination they bring to our schools every day. From sparking curiosity to guiding young minds, they shape the future with every lesson, every smile, and every word of encouragement.
Let’s get creative in how we show our appreciation! Write a heartfelt note, make a piece of art, perform a song, or simply say "thank you" in a meaningful way. Every little gesture counts.

Updated Wed, Apr 9th

In June 2024 we submitted a self-study to AVID. We examined our school's performance in four domains

--AVID Schoolwide Instruction

  • WICOR® (Writing, Inquiry, Collaboration, Organization and Reading)

--AVID Schoolwide Systems

  • Management of AVID Elementary Implementation
  • Access to Rigor and Student Support
  • Assessment of Student Progress
  • Professional Learning

--AVID Schoolwide Leadership

  • College Readiness Mission and Vision
  • Representative Governance 
  • Pathway to College Readiness

--AVID Schoolwide Culture

  • Rigor
  • Community Activities and College Awareness
  • College-Going Environment

Our self-study was evaluated by AVID and Lynhaven was awarded the status of "AVID Re-Certified Site."  This special recognition is possible becuase of the hard work of our students, teachers, and staff and the strong partnerships between home and school. 

We continue to work towards the next level of recogntion: AVID Showcase School!

Lynhaven PTA Needs YOU!
Wow—what an amazing year we've had, thanks to YOU! From Kinder Round Up to Science Camp, Dine Out Nights, and the Scholastic Book Fair, none of this would have been possible without your support. But now, we need your help to keep the momentum going!

📅 Join us for the General Association Meeting & Potluck on March 20 at 6 PM in the MU Room—come share a meal and help shape the future of our PTA!

Respect Our Restrooms – A Message for All Grades
Mrs. Maria, our amazing custodian, works hard every day to keep our campus clean — from handling bathroom accidents, spills, and unpleasant accidents, to picking up trash and so much more. Lately, there has been an increase in unnecessary messes, like bringing tanbark into the restrooms and misusing the facilities.
It takes a lot of time, effort, and pride to keep our school looking great, and it’s unfair and disrespectful to create messes on purpose.
Please have a conversation with your students to show respect for the hard work that goes into keeping it clean and do their part.
In Partnership,
Lynhaven

Dear Lynhaven Community,


First of all, we would like to THANK YOU ALL for your continued support with our Lynhaven Elementary School PTA.  Here are a few successful events we accomplished together that enriched the lives for our students, teachers/staff, and for our child’s school for this 2024 - 25:

 
  • Kinder Round Up

  • Funding for Class Field Trips

  • Funding for 5th Grade Science Camp

  • Staff Reimbursements for Classroom Enrichment

  • Dine Out Night Fundraisers

  • Provided New ABC shirts for ALL Students/Staff

  • Scholastic Book Fair

  • Stories Under the Stars

  • And much much more

All these successes and accomplishments would have not been possible 

without your involvement, dedication, and participation!!!


If you have not volunteered and/or would like to help out, it is not too late.  Here are the last PTA events for the year: 


March 20 General Association Meeting/Board Elections

May 2  Walkathon

May 5 - 9 Staff Appreciation Week

May 22  Last General Association Meeting (2024-25)


To continue all this hard work we have done towards next school year, at our next General Association Meeting (3/20), we will need to ELECT NEW BOARD MEMBERS for 2025-2026.  Unfortunately, if we are unable to elect 3 minimum essential roles of  PRESIDENT, TREASURER AND SECRETARY, our PTA will become non-compliant with our PTA bylaws, and we will need to dissolve Lynhaven’s PTA at the end of this year (June 2025).  As a result of ending PTA, student enrichment and school support events listed above may not be attainable for 2025 - 26.  In addition, we would love to see more volunteers come forward to help with event planning, fundraising efforts, design, communication, and other PTA positions to support our Lynhaven community (no experience needed and training is available).  


March 17 - 20, PTA will have an informational booth before and after school at the front and back school entrances.  Please stop by for more information regarding PTA, or if you would like to volunteer or provide support for the next upcoming events.  Again, ALL this would not be possible without your continued support and dedication!!!


March 20 General Association Meeting @ 6pm Multi-Use Room  

(POTLUCK dinner - bring something to share)


With Gratitude,

2024 - 2025 Lynhaven PTA Executive Board
