Welcome to Golden Gate Elementary School, where students step up and lead!  It is an honor and privilege to serve as the new Principal of this school and work with the dedicated students, staff, families, and community members.  With an emphasis on leadership, students are provided opportunities to showcase their talents and leadership skills both inside and outside the classroom.  As a Leader in Me Lighthouse school, students will continue to set academic and personal wildly important goals. Our committed staff works with the students to achieve their goals and we celebrate student achievements daily.  GGE provides a safe and comfortable learning environment where children can become risk takers and work through productive struggles confidently. Productive struggle will help our students develop strong habits of the mind including perseverance, flexible thinking, and active learning.  We greatly value the partnerships we have with our parents and the community. I invite you to consider joining our School Advisory Council (SAC), volunteering, or attending our various family events throughout the year.  Stay connected with all events happening in and around our campus by following us on Facebook and Twitter @GGESeagulls.  Go Seagulls!
