About Us

About Us:

Garfield Elementary School is proud to serve the West Long Beach community. With a rich history and strong community ties, many of our students are the children and grandchildren of Garfield alumni.

Our dedicated team of educators and support staff is committed to fostering a safe, inclusive, and engaging learning environment where all students can thrive academically and develop the social-emotional skills they need for future success.

At Garfield, we believe that education is a shared responsibility. We warmly welcome families as essential partners in the school-home collaboration that supports each child’s growth and achievement. Together, we are building a strong foundation for lifelong learning!

Our Mission: 

To ensure student achievement through an environment of high expectations, collaboration, and commitment to character while preparing our scholars to be adaptive and productive citizens with solid foundation for future education and career readiness.
