Golden Hills Elementary School
January 2022 Newsletter
Message from the Principal:
Welcome to the New Year! We hope you had a very happy, restful holiday! We, at Golden Hills, are eager to get back to what we all do the best…. develop life-long learners in the students and continue to learn ourselves.
A reminder that cell phones and smart watches are not allowed at school. If a student brings one they will need to check it in the office or with their teacher. The school is not responsible for any lost, broken or stolen items. Thank you for your support. Social media issues have occurred with Golden Hills students, it is important to teach students how to use technology responsibly and they should be monitored to keep the students safe. If you need help with this please let us know.
Mrs. Napoli
Golden Hills Principal
