At Gar-Field HS, we are passionate about making sure each of our students graduate college, career or trade ready. No matter your passions or interests, we have programs to serve all of your students. I invite you to come to our school-specific information nights, visit our school website, and ask questions about building a 4-year plan that is in line with your goals and visions of your future.

Mr. Matthew Mathison, Principal GFHS
