October is National Principals Month and Golden Hill Elementary staff and students want to recognize their principal! Starla Ciarelli has been the principal of Golden Hill since 2023.  She has brought a positive atmosphere and many new ideas to Golden Hill. Ciarelli is always making positive changes to benefit our students each and everyday. 

Isabelle Rivera from Noreen Meehan's fifth grade homeroom said, “Principal Ciarelli is that she helps people be fair."

Another student, kindergartener Isabella White, discussed how it felt to see her principal supporting her at extracurriculars. “I love Principal Ciarelli because she is kind and she helps everyone. At the art show last year, she was very happy to see me." 

Many students shared that Ciarelli creates an environment at school that feels safe. Second grader Myra Kendra said, “"Principal Ciarelli always makes sure everyone is being kind and safe!"

“We are so lucky to have Starla on the Hill and we hope she is here leading all of us for many more years to come,” said Allison Gill and Kathleen Scheuermann

We encourage everyone to take a moment over the coming weeks of October to reach out and thank Principal Starla Ciarelli for all she does for our school and community!

Thank you, Principal Ciarelli!
