School Traffic Safety: Protecting Our Kids and Neighbors
|
It’s crucial to prioritize traffic safety for our students and neighbors.
With busy mornings and afternoons, the roads around our school can become hectic. Let’s work together to ensure everyone stays safe!
Please remember to drive slowly and watch for children crossing the street. Use designated drop-off and pick-up zones, and encourage kids to use crosswalks.
We also ask parents and guardians to set a good example by practicing safe walking and biking habits. Together, we can create a safer environment for our children and foster positive relationships within our community.
Let’s keep our roads safe and our neighborhoods thriving!
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.
Please see link below to submit a Traffic Enforcement Request.

Throughout the school year there will be plenty of opportunities to get involved. Parents and guardians are encouraged to volunteer. However, safety and security is a top priority.
Please see information and links below on how to become a volunteer!
Option 1 (Recommended)
Volunteer packet with LIVESCAN FORM (fingerprints required) is for volunteers who will be alone with students. ( field trips, where they will be alone with children and no staff overseeing them, support with small groups in an area which is not supervised by a staff member, yard duty etc.)
Option 2
Volunteer packet NO LIVESCAN (no fingerprint clearance required) are for all volunteers which will be under supervision by a staff member at all times, for example, small groups within the classroom under teacher supervision, reading in the classroom, any type or volunteering where they will be overseen by staff.

Project Cornerstone Volunteer
|
Our school has adopted Project Cornerstone's parents engagement program Los Dichos & ABC's, which is part of a country wide effort to build assets in our youth by providing connections with caring adults and lessons that promote a more caring school climate.
The Asset Building Champions (ABC) and Los Dichos are parent engagement programs.
Parents and families can volunteer at Lynhaven by reading specially selected books and leading activities that help teach valuable lessons.
The Spanish-language Los Dichos program opens new doors for parents from diverse cultures to support their children’s school success as well as the healthy development of all young people in their communities.
If you are interested please connect with Community Liaison, Noelia Smith at nsmith [at] campbellusd.org or (408) 556-0368 ext. 4856.
Please note all volunteers must comply with volunteer requirements and processes.
