Tomorrow 3/6/26, Garfield will have both spring pictures and group pictures.
Since it is also pajama day, please send your child to school wearing the outfit you would like them to be photographed in. They may bring their pajamas to change into afterward. Thank you.
No running club due to weather.
Garfield hosted their first Wildcat Workshop for our littlest learners (PK and Kindergartners). Students and parents got to learn new activities to work on building language and vocabulary at home. They even made a craft and took home materials. Look for information coming home in the next few weeks. We would love more participants!!






Congratulations, Ms. Harris! We appreciate all you do!!
