Welcome
Garfield has a family atmosphere, which stresses a caring and giving educational experience. We have strong parental support that provides many unique opportunities for our students. We are small enough to be a family, yet large enough to provide many exciting educational opportunities!

From Our Community
Garfield School's motto is "Grow, learn, belong". The staff and teachers are continually providing a comforting and encouraging environment to assist the growth and learning in each individual. The proof is in generalized test scores, where Garfield school exceeds expectations. Garfield school is known for creating a sense of belonging for each student and family by providing a feeling of being part of the family. In a small school setting you get to know the other families and teachers beyond just a first name basis. There's value in that as it's not just another elementary school. Clearly the staff and teachers at Garfield School live and breathe their motto daily. We have been nothing but satisfied with Garfield School and would highly suggest it to anyone in the community. alison beving - garfield elementary parent
