Greetings, Garfield East Families!
Thank you for an awesome first day of school! It was wonderful to see everyone, and we are excited about the great year ahead. If you captured any special first-day pictures, please share them with us by sending them to your child’s teacher.
As we prepare for our first full week of school, here are a few friendly reminders:
