National Library Week is an annual celebration highlighting the valuable role libraries, librarians, and library workers play in transforming lives and that is certainly true at Garfield. Mrs. Cheryl Hedrick has been the librarian at Garfield since 2017, and is beloved by the students, staff, and families of Cub Country. Learning is a passion with Mrs. Hedrick, and it shows with every lesson and every book shared with classes that come to the library. Her joy and excitement are contagious! In addition to being the Garfield librarian, Mrs. Hedrick is our site technology person. She updates and maintains over 600 laptops & Chromebooks for our Cubs. She also is a facilitator for Clovis Supports & Interventions or CSI, supporting all our CUBS. We are so thankful for Mrs. Hedricks!

CUSD Kindergarten & Transitional Kindergarten registration will be online, followed by an appointment at the school. The student’s birth certificate, immunization records, and proof of residency in the Garfield area must all be uploaded into the online registration form prior to coming to school for your registration appointment. Registration is now open and may be accessed on the CUSD website home page. After completion of the online portion, please contact our office to schedule an appointment with our registrar to complete registration for your student. Classroom placement will be at random, not by the date and time registration is completed.

To be eligible for kindergarten for the 25-26 school year, your child must reach 5 years of age on or before Sept. 1, 2025. To be eligible for Transitional Kindergarten, your student must turn 4 by Sept. 1, 2025. Please note that you must live in the CUSD defined Garfield area to attend school at Garfield. You may confirm this on the CUSD website. Only a parent or legal guardian may register a child for school. If you are currently a custodian of a child or a foster parent, please contact the CUSD office of Student Services and School Attendance at 327-9200 for assistance.

Our highly anticipated school carnival is coming up on May 2nd, 2025, and we are seeking community support to make it a huge success! We are looking for Business Sponsors to help bring this event to life, Vendors to showcase their products and services, and Silent Auction Donations. This is a fantastic opportunity to promote your business while supporting the Garfield Elementary community. If you're interested in getting involved, please reach out-we would love to partner with you!
