GOLDEN, July 1, 2022 – The Golden Schools Foundation (GSF) is pleased to

announced following a meeting of GSF’s Board

of Directors on June 15, 2022.

Amy Sundermann is a Golden resident and a recently retired Jeffco Teacher.

Amy worked at Welchester Elementary before transitioning to Mitchell

Elementary where she has worked for the last eight years. At Mitchell, she

served on numerous committees and led several strategic initiatives. Amy, along

with her husband, also runs a Special Olympics ski team and is active with the

Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. The Sundermanns are parents of two

“GSF has done remarkable work over the past nine years, and it is my privilege

to have been a part of that growth. Throughout my tenure, I worked to build and

strengthen relationships with city, county, and state leaders; school staff and

administration; local business leaders; and most importantly, parents and

students, Together, we were able to enhance our 7 articulation area schools and

make them some of the most sought-after schools in the district. It is a very

bittersweet transition for me, but I am confident in Amy’s leadership and passion

to continue to further our mission. I look forward to

continued success of GSF,”

“I am interested in this position because I am passionate about schools excelling,

and I love Golden,” said Amy Sundermann. “I have lots of connections within the

community businesses through the kids I have taught, and the families I've

connected with during my children's school paths. I know what teachers and

schools need to be great places to learn and teach,” continued Sundermann. "I

am excited to continue growing GSF's path in making our schools an amazing

educational journey."
