It's very fun and diverse. Every morning they give announcements about every sport. They are inclusive overall

My experience in the High School is a great way to start your day once you enter those gates. These staffs always have a smile on there face which makes you feel loved in the school. They have clubs for everyone which is on of the best things for us that feel different from anyone in the school. Some of my worst experiences would be some of the teachers not letting you do some things for example have a chat with your friends during class and just being quiet for the whole period of time.

As a former student of Garfield,I too think it is a great school. The AP classes and teachers are excellent,I had the good fortune to be taught by some of those teachers. Overall it is a good school and I had a great time there as a student but if there was one negative it would be the lack of teach...
