Welcome to Farnham!

  • WELCOME TO FARNHAM ELEMENTARY SCHOOL!

    As part of the Cambrian School District, we proudly partner with our families and community to ensure each of our students possess the strongest foundation upon which to build their future success. Our goal is to serve, support and exceed your expectations.

    As Farnham’s Principal, I strongly encourage every family become involved and engaged in a meaningful way in their child’s educational experience.  Our school is a caring, collaborative community where we develop creative and critical thinkers and foster a strong sense of community.  This allows our school to serve as a shining example of how true teamwork and partnership between the home and school translate into success for every child.

    As a District, we believe all children have value, deserve respect, can learn, can succeed, have a right to the best education possible, and can be lifelong learners. 

    Cambrian School District has a rich tradition of excellence and a stellar reputation based upon student achievement, staff professionalism, and parent satisfaction. Our rigorous, hands-on curriculum advances critical thinking and problem-solving skills. At the Elementary level, our schools have seen tremendous growth in student learning. Our highly trained staff continues to carefully connect the District’s mission, vision, core values and beliefs to enhance teaching and learning through the implementation of instructional best practices.

    Together, let’s explore the infinite possibilities in learning for our children!

    Remembering Mr. Dinh

    It is with great sadness that we share that Mr. Phat Dinh, an endearing 2nd grade teacher at Farnham Elementary School and beloved member of our Cambrian School District family, passed away at home on November 11, surrounded by family and friends.

    As many of you well know, Mr. Dinh was an extraordinary man--humble, kind and extremely giving to everyone he met. His students benefited from his passion for education and love of teaching. He leaves behind a legacy of courage, integrity and positivity. He will be greatly missed.
