Hello Lynhaven families! I can't believe it's already the holiday break! And in a few weeks, it will be 2017! Ms. Ajlouni and I would like to wish you a wonderful holiday break and a very Happy New Year.
Remember, we return to school on TUESDAY, January 3rd. Monday is a holiday. Be safe and enjoy this time with your friends and family. See you next year!
On Tuesday, January 17th, all Transitional Kindergartner (TK), Kindergartners, and 5th grade students may receive dental screenings provided by local licensed dentists at Lynhaven School. With consent from parents, these students may also receive a FREE application of flouride varnish to help prevent cavities!!
To find out more about this new dental program, parents are invited to attend a Dental Education Assembly presented by licensed dentists from the Santa Clara County Dental Society next MONDAY, JANUARY 9th. It will be in the cafeteria at 8:30 am and again at 6:30 pm. A light snack will be provided. We hope to see you all there!
