Message from the Principal
Dr. Terri Lonneman
Welcome to Golden Terrace Elementary School, home of the Terrific Toucans! Our boys and girls practice character traits each and every day and give their best to their academics. Our teachers, staff and I hold very high expectations of our students. We believe that every child can succeed, and it is our job to create a fun, challenging and motivational environment where all students can do their best. Parents should maintain an active role in their child’s education. We encourage parents to get involved in our school by joining the PTO, the School Advisory Council and volunteering in the classrooms. Your children are our future.
