The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students.

very very good and nice teacher and overall great school. One of the best parts were definitely my friends because I had lots of nice, friendly, and funny friends. Some of the worst parts are probably not to be mean is the amount of people bringing vapes or nicotine to school. But beside form that it is a very amazing school. What I would like to see change is a field trip at least one. Also, the amount of cameras because they don't need 2 cameras right next to each other in the corner. Lunch out of 10 would be a 9.7 because I DONT KNOW WHY BUT THEY GOT RID OF KIWIS WHICH IS A VERY BAD CHOICE. (sorry for the caps) But I don't understand this is my first year for my 12 years of living when schools gave kiwis out so I got exciting saying, "Yay I get kiwis everyday". 2 days later gone. wiped form the face of earth. But all together very very good school.

The teachers at Garfield have so much character and are good role models! I would like to see Garfield have more clubs and after school programs that the kids can get involved in!
