• Our mission is to cultivate a dynamic learning community that is filled with high expectations and rigorous instruction. At Garfield, we prioritize the academic, social, and emotional development of scholars.
• In SY24-25 we will be returning to our traditional school side. Garfield will be home to a newly modernized school building! We are thrilled for our entire community as we are moving into a state-of-the-art facility.
• Garfield is truly a community school. We value the input of all stakeholders and have active partnerships with our Parent Teacher Organization (PTO), our law-firm partner Paul Hastings, Turning the Page, and other organizations within our community.
