Principal's Message

As we embark on this new school year, I am absolutely thrilled to welcome back our students, families, faculty, and staff to another exciting year at Golden Valley High School. I am Mindy Carter, and I am honored to serve as your Principal. The 2025-2026 academic year promises to be one filled with significant growth, achievement, and new experiences for all of us.
 
At Golden Valley, we are deeply committed to nurturing a learning environment where every student feels valued, inspired, and challenged to reach their fullest potential. Our dedicated faculty and staff strive to fulfill our mission by equipping students with essential skills, knowledge, and social and emotional support, preparing them to become independent, responsible, and successful adults.
 

This year, we will continue to embrace the spirit of #BulldogSTRONG through GROWTH, PRIDE, and SERVICE in all aspects of life. By focusing on these core values, our students will be well-prepared to succeed not only during their time here at high school but also in all their future endeavors.

I encourage each of you to embrace the opportunities that await you this school year. Take advantage of our extensive range of academic programs, explore new interests through our clubs and organizations, and develop new relationships along the way. Remember, your contributions – both big and small – make a difference in shaping the Bulldog Family.

As we navigate the year ahead, communication and collaboration will be key. I invite parents and guardians to stay actively engaged in your child's education and to reach out to our faculty and staff with any questions or concerns you may have. Together, we can ensure that every student thrives academically, socially, and emotionally. Please stay connected to our school through the website at https://goldenvalley.kernhigh.org/ Instagram at @gvhsbulldogstrong, and our Parent and Family Center.

Our dedicated and proud staff look forward to celebrating the achievements of our students and witnessing the positive impact they will undoubtedly make on our community and beyond. Here's to a successful and rewarding school year ahead!
