Garfield Elementary is excited about delving into our district’s curriculum such as: Wonders by McGraw Hill, Math Expressions, STEMscopes, My World by Savvas and Imagine Learning. Garfield Elementary has implemented after-school programs such as IMSA (Illinois Math and Science Academy), WOZ Ed, Best Buddies, Heritage Afterschool Tutoring, Small World Learning Before and After School Care and a plethora of afterschool student clubs. Our Student Council members are important role models for our student body because they motivate their peers to model positive citizenship and to remain involved in our school community. We look forward to partnering with our parents, stakeholders, and the community to help to us reach a 97% attendance goal. We can do it! Garfield is on the move!
