Read what parents are saying about Garfield Elementary School

My daughter got a scholarship to a middle school and we found that she was working at about the third or fourth grade level even though Garfield said she was gifted and a top student. She even got awards.

What I always look for in a school is the feel of the school, one of the first thing I noticed was the difference in culture. I love this and everyone gets along with one another. Great teachers their here to deal with the children on a one on one basis and the kids love their teachers. They are fed nutritional foods morning noon and snacks. The parents can feel comfortable leaving their children and feel comfortable going to work and know that they are well taken care of when they pick their child up in the evening. I've watched them come and go out to do great things and I'm so proud of all our children that have graduated from here to brighter futures.
