 Dear Garfield Eagles,
Thank you for taking the time to attend our virtual "back to school night." We had a great turnout! If you were unable to attend, please contact your child's teacher to locate the recorded version. It has been made available for you.
Over the last three week, we've seen students become accustomed to their new school routines and procedures. While this isn't the ideal environment for school, we see that students, parents and teachers are making the very best of the time they have together.
As we begin week 4, please take a few moments to review the information captured in our newsletter. You will find additional information on school testing, parent consent forms and student rights and responsibilities.
Virtual hugs,
Mrs. Cage, Principal
Mrs. Waters, Assistant Principal
Each year, students are assessed using the iReady universal screener as one tool to help determine where your child is performing academically. With the COVID-19 pandemic still with us, this year students will be taking this assessment at home. Please watch this video for some tips on how to support your child with this assessment from home. Letters with more information will be emailed by classroom teachers soon.

Please read the information below. We need forms for every student. |
Virtual First Day Packet
The Parent Consent Form is just one of the forms we need you to review and/or fill out as the school year begins. Usually we provide paper copies of these forms in our First Day Packet. For this virtual environment, we have adapted that process to a digital format. Please visit the Garfield Virtual first day forms page on our school website and follow the directions for each form if applicable to your family.
Return to School at Garfield Website
Finally, we have created a Garfield Return to School 2020 page on our school website where we are posting messages from the administrators and links to other pages with important back-to-school information. Please visit often to stay up to date with the latest information.
