After my sons first quarter I must say that I am impressed. The best thing I have noted so far is how comfortable my son is at school. He loves the environment, and all the teachers and staff go out of there way to create a possitive learning environment. Thank you Garfield staff.

This school is amazing my son has enjoyed going to garfield. The teachers welcome parent participation and treat each child differently based on their personality and learning style. The school has many teacher and family activities through out the year not just twice a year for conferences. I love this school.

I have had two children attend Garfield. The teachers and administrators care about each child. The principal seems to know every child's name. Teachers are very energetic and care about the scholastic accomplishments of the children. At the end of each year, the teachers and administrators gather together to decide which personalities mesh together (teacher and student) to place students for the next year. Also, Title Tutors are available to children who are lacking in any area for any grade. I volunteered for a few hours each week and there were never less that two adults in the classroom at one time - whether it is a BSU student or aide. The actual school structure is quite old, yet well maintained and there is a new playground that the children raised money to purchase. Extra activities Garfield provide are the GATE program, choir, orchestra and competitive basketball.
