Garfield Elementary School

This school was so boring. But once I graduated I low-key felt sad not being here. Plus, most of the teachers are so sweet.

My children have attended Keene Mill for several years now, and I have been very impressed with the high quality of education and caring teachers. The school also hosts special events throughout the year, which truly build a welcoming community that celebrates our children. I very much appreciate this school.

I can't say enough good things about this school! From the moment you walk in, you feel the warmth and care that fills the entire atmosphere. The teachers are exceptional—always going above and beyond to ensure every student is supported and thriving. They truly look out for the children, making sure they feel seen and heard.The office staff and clinic are not only bilingual but also incredibly welcoming. It’s such a relief to know that both parents and students can communicate easily, no matter their language. The administration is young, energetic, and highly knowledgeable. You can see that they genuinely care about the well-being of both their students and staff, always making sure everyone feels like a valued part of the school community.What really sets this school apart, though, is the tight-knit community. The families here are very involved, and it shows. It’s a place where everyone supports each other, from the teachers to the parents, to the students themselves. It’s clear that the school’s success isn’t just about education, but about creating a welcoming environment where every child can thrive.If you're looking for a school that cares deeply about its students, staff, and community, this is the one!

We truly love this school. The teachers are incredibly caring, attentive, and supportive. You can truly feel how much they care about the children and their growth. The environment is warm and welcoming, making both kids and parents feel comfortable and supported. Sadly, we had to move from the area, but we are very grateful we were part of this wonderful community.

I appreciate the warmth, inclusiveness, and support that the teachers, staff, and fellow students offered our family. St. Mark's is one of a kind and a hidden gem!! We are so grateful to have found this school for our daughter, and wish she could start there sooner. They truly live up to the Montessori educational principles. My daughter grows in her love for learning, independence, and confidence in expressing herself.
