Lynhaven Elementary School

My daughter was at this school from K-3rd grade. This school is very diverse and they tries to incorporate all cultures. The school tries to find ways to help the students experience different things. I was very happy I didn't chose this school based on the scores but went to see for myself how hard they work for the kids.

This is the best school in the area for students with learning differences! My son is challenged in his social behavioral skills and had gone through a few different schools before he came to Lynhaven. He was enrolled in Room 18 with Mrs. Martin and has been in love with school since day 1. We have seen tremendous improvements in the past 5 months and are thrilled to see him developing social as well as academic skills. Before Lynhaven we went to the so-called "top-rated" private schools like Stratford (Sunnyvale) and Old Orchard only to be told by the program directors that students like my son were "not welcome" at the school and should be "weeded out". The educators showed no willingness to work with different children and were concerned that kids with learning differences are going to lower the average academic scores. What cut-throat competitive mindset this is! Certainly fits well in Wall Street, but fails the mission of a true educator. We are happy that we came to Lynhaven! The teachers are super nice and caring. They truly love what they do, unlike the ones at Stratford, who would not bother to even greet the "less favored" kids as they are being dropped off. I will never go back.

A++++++++++++++++++ love this school and the staff

Amazing school! Super sad we had to move because of the amazing staff and the INCREDIBLE principal, Mrs. Rowan! If your looking for an elementary school for your child near San Jose, COME TO LYNHAVEN!!! :) :)
