Lynn Valley Preschool





FOR 37 years, the Lynn Valley Parent Participation Preschool has been in the same building on Mountain Highway. But that's only recent history, because the school has actually been in existence for over 57 years. Now this is no easy task because the very nature of the school depends on the parents and volunteers. No wonder they've earned the Donner Award for Excellence in the delivery of social services. On January 26, the school held an open house celebration of their award-winning longevity where parents, teachers and students, both past and present, got a chance to come and play. Congratulations to all involved.
