Principal's Message

Hello Farnham Community,

Happy Summer! I hope that you are able to find some time to try to decompress during this time and to recognize the little things that you are able to do with your family. I will be communicating with you throughout the summer to update you on our plans for what school will look like when we resume in August. We are working closely with the Santa Clara County Health Department as well as the entire Santa Clara County School Districts to develop a plan that ensures the safety of our students and staff. 

At Farnham, we believe that educating children is the responsibility of the total school community and we are seeing this first hand as our teachers are working closely with the families of Farnham. Like all schools in the Cambrian School District, we are a California Distinguished School. The staff is dedicated to providing powerful learning experiences that meet the needs of all of our students. We create a caring environment where students feel safe, take risks in their learning and develop lifelong learning skills.

Farnham has strong parent involvement. We are proud of the many volunteers that provide services to our school. Although many of our activities and end of the year events and celebrations had to be canceled, our community is working together to continue to provide opportunities for us to celebrate being a Falcon from afar. We are proud of our students, parents, staff, and community as they work together for student success, and in the process create a sense of community that makes Farnham such a special school.

When our buildings reopen I invite you to come and participate in our community, as a volunteer in a classroom, in a school-wide event, or in whatever way resonates with you.

Be well,

Amy O'Hehir 

Principal, Farnham Elementary School
