Support Continuous Improvement - Take the Survey

Annual Parent/Guardian Survey Opens Jan. 15th

yellow diamond traffic sign that reads

In our district, we consistently strive to do better. To continue to improve, we need input from our community. Our annual School Experience Survey is the best way for us to reach the greatest number of parents, guardians, staff and students across the district.

The survey results provide vital information for us to know what's working and what we can improve. What can we celebrate, and what areas need more attention?

The survey is quick, confidential, and necessary feedback for us to make our schools great places to learn and work.

Parents, please look for the survey link in your email, ParentSquare account or posters at your child's school.

Invitation to Preview Proposed Curricula on February 6th

English/Language Arts curricula being considered for grades 6-8

English teacher working with students

We are in the process of adopting a new curriculum for our middle grades for English/ Language Arts.  Our teachers are piloting one unit from each curriculum, completing the assessments, and sharing feedback with the instructional team. 

As part of our adoption process, we invite parents and community members to preview and provide feedback on the two curricula being piloted. The feedback from parents, community and our teachers will be shared with the piloting team and the Governing Board before a final adoption decision is made. Implementation is planned for the 2025-26 school year. 

The proposed grade 6-8 curricula, CommonLit and Savvas myPerspectives, will be available for review on Thursday, February 6, 2025, in the Hamilton Room, at the District Administration Office (155 N 3rd St., Campbell). Viewing sessions are from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., and 5 p.m. to 7 p.m.

For questions, please contact your school’s principal or call the District’s Teaching and Learning Department at 408-364-4200.

New Year
Welcome Back Lynhaven!
We hope you had a restful and rejuvenating break and are feeling ready for the exciting year ahead. As we kick off the new year, we look forward to continuing our journey together, supporting each other and fostering a strong community. We wish you all good health and happiness in the months to come. Let’s make this year a great one for our students, staff, and families!
A special thank you goes out to the amazing teachers and staff. Our admin Mrs. Callaway-Wilson and Mrs. Ramirez were inspired by the way the team turned the challenges of this morning's power outage into opportunities to engage students in creative and innovative ways. This truly highlights just how talented and resourceful our teachers are, even without the use of technology—taking us all back to the 'olden days' for a little while! Their dedication and adaptability truly make a difference!
On a another note, we also want to express our heartfelt sympathy to any families who may be affected by the Southern California fires. Our thoughts are with them, and we wish safety and strength during these challenging times. Please read below for further resource information.
And again, welcome back, and here's to a wonderful 2025!
In Partnership,
Lynhaven
