John L. Golden Elementary School

Tonight, the City of Rancho Cucamonga City Council recognized Board Member David Long's service to the community. His daughter, Desiree Clark, accepted the certificate on his behalf.

Today is dedicated to the school library staff who instill a love of reading in students, help teachers with all the necessary resources, and engage our families in the school community. Don't forget to take some time this week to thank your school library staff.

Congratulations to our PTA Reflection winners! This year's theme was "Show Your Voice," and our Etiwanda students did just that by sharing dance performances, creative short films, and photographs. Coral, Bodhi, Johnny, and Chloe did an amazing job. #EtiwandaExcellence

The 15th Battle of the Books was fantastic! Our Etiwanda Library Team, students, families, and all of the volunteers made Saturday's event a huge success. Congratulations to not just the winning teams but to all the students who worked so hard preparing for this event by reading all of the required books.

Please join us in wishing good luck to all Etiwanda students competing in this year's Battle of the Books! They have worked so hard leading up to this event, and we are certain they will have a great time competing tomorrow.

From eating green eggs and ham to dressing up as a favorite literacy character, our Etiwanda students had a great time during their Read Across America activities. At Golden Elementary, we even had community volunteers from the Arrowheart Foundation read to some of our students.

Happy Read Across America Day! 

Today, we're giving a high five to the members of SEAC, a student advisory group. They have met with a district advisor a few times this school year to give feedback on programs at their school sites. Throughout the meetings, they are engaged, kind, and responsible.

We had a tremendous turnout at last night's district spelling bee. Congratulations to all of our Etiwanda students who participated in this event and will move on to the county level. #EtiwandaExcellence
