I'm trying to make it so when a part is clicked a gui will appear on the screen visibly. I did this by changing the gui's parent to startergui. This didn't work and now I'm stuck wondering what I messed up on or if I even used the right solution.
script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function()
game.ServerStorage.Notification.Parent = game.StarterGui
end)
Assuming that that's a local script, local scripts cannot access server storage. This is to prevent exploiters from accessing it as the majority of their code only replicates to the client. To change this just move it from server storage to another place, like lighting or something else.

Oh got it. Thanks!
Expanding on greatneil80 answer:
script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function(player)
game.ServerStorage.Notification.Parent = player:FindFirstChild("PlayerGui")
end)
Make sure that Notification is a ScreenGui or parent it to already existing ScreenGui.

Parent it to the player gui, player gui is the startergui in each player.
