WELCOME
Welcome Message from Principal
I, Jennifer Teichelman, as the proud principal of Garfield Elementary, extend a warm welcome to all!
At Garfield, we believe in the power of unity and collaboration. Together, as a dedicated team of educators, parents, and students, we can create an environment where every individual has the opportunity to thrive and reach their full potential. It is through our collective efforts and support that we can ensure all our students grow academically, socially, and emotionally.
I encourage each and every one of you to actively participate in our school community, engage in open communication, and work hand in hand to foster a positive and nurturing learning environment. By working together, we can inspire, motivate, and empower our students to achieve greatness.
I look forward to a successful academic year filled with growth, learning, and achievements for all.
Garfield Gators, How Do You Feel!?
