Welcome Back! The staff at Golden Hill School
hopes that all families have had a fun relaxing summer. It is nice to
see familiar faces and meet many new families. With the start of the new
school year, it is important to take time to review important school procedures
and happenings. School Arrival and departure times School begins at 9am sharp! NO CARS SHOULD EVER DRIVE THROUGH THE BUS
LANE! 1.This is illegal and you can be ticketed. 2. Student drop off is to the side of the building
near the field.. A sign designates this area. Students should have their
bags and lunch boxes ready. No parking in drop off lane! 3. Parents must park their cars in a space if they
are stopping their cars or getting out. 4. No Double Parking Miscellaneous Information: Community Involvement Parents are encouraged to take part in their
student’s education. There are monthly family nights, a Parent-
Teacher Organization, and Site Council opportunities. We are looking
for new Members for the Golden Hill Site Council. This is a nice
way to learn what is going on in the school and district , and help
make decisions that will effect your child’s achievement!
You are the key to your child’s success in school! RESPECT-
Students at Golden Hill are taught
to have respect for themselves and others. Diversity and differences are
appreciated and valued at Golden Hill School. Golden Hill School takes
part in the Second Step Program which involves conflict resolution and
appreciation of diversity. The speed limit up the hill is 10mph. "Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success"


Students should not be dropped off before 8:45am. Dismissal is at 3:15
at the side door for walkers and the front door for buses. All students
need to be picked up at 3:15 sharp for safety reasons. Students should
not be on the playscape after school unless accompanied by their parent.
Teachers have meetings after school so there is no supervision.
STUDENT DROP-OFF /PARKING **
This is a very important issue.
5. The Speed limit driving up the hill is 10 MPH!

Golden Hill School runs on a 6 day cycle. The school’s
monthly calendar has the corresponding letter day. The cost of lunch is
$2.25 daily and milk is 60 cents. Free/reduced lunch
forms are available. If dismissing your child or changing their normal
way home, please send in a note. We can not allow a child
to go home an alternate way without a note. Students can not switch buses
without approval from the Coppola bus company. This is for their safety.
Please send in a note when your child is returning from an absence.
Agendas for grades 3-5 will be given to each child. The cost is $3.00.
Please send this in to your child’s teacher. Agendas are an excellent
way for your child to remain organized and also allow for parents and
teachers to communicate on daily happenings. If your child needs medication
at school, the medication must be brought in to the nurse in it’s
original bottle by an adult. Please return two copies of the green emergency
card ASAP to your child’s teacher. Please update regularly throughout
the school year with any new information.
