New Golden Hill principal introduces himself

Greetings and welcome back to school. I hope that you and your child are enjoying a wonderful summer. Please let me take a minute and express my sincere gratitude to the Florida community, and especially to those who served on the hiring committees, for giving me this challenging, yet rewarding position of leading Golden Hill Elementary School.

Florida’s warm welcome is appreciated. This will be my home away from home, my extended family.

As we prepare to help students during these times, my values reflect those similar to that of our schools. As a learning organization, we will be in constant collaboration on the best way to meet the needs of today’s students.

We will use research based strategies that help support student learning.

We will monitor student learning, and if there is a gap, we’ll use the appropriate intervention(s) to get our students back on track.

New state assessments, Common Core Standards and technology are constantly evolving.

But with all of these changes comes the one constant - our teachers. These professional leaders are in our classrooms to help guide and support student learning, which in turn allows for high levels of achievement for our children.

Our teachers and staff give students the confidence to take on new tasks, build relationships and help support emotional social growth. Working together, we can help each student take on the learning challenges necessary to become productive members of our community. We are confident that with the thoughtful placement decisions made by the Golden Hill Team, your child will have a great year!

I look forward to working with all of you to help our children become lifelong learners. In learning,

Andy Cameron
Principal
