When Garfield Re-2 elementary parents opened their child’s report card this year, they likely noticed some changes. Included in their first-quarter report are reflections of the same traits that the community identified as most important.

District educators sought to make report cards more meaningful, easier to understand, and more closely aligned with the qualities that matter most for students’ long-term success.

Big celebrations are in order at Wamsley Elementary School. Our Wildcats have officially soared to green!

The School Performance Framework (SPF), often thought of as the state’s “report card” for schools, measures how much students are learning and growing each year. Schools can earn ratings ranging from Turnaround (red) to Performance with Distinction (blue), and this year, Wamsley Elementary proudly reached the Green Performance level!

The Garfield Re-2 School Board held its regular meeting on Wednesday, June 25 at the district office. Thank you all who came to the meeting!

We began the evening by celebrating the outstanding accomplishments of our high school spring sports athletes. Heather Grumley and Lisa Pierce shared heartfelt and enthusiastic reports on the incredible success of our student-athletes. This meeting also marked their final presentation before retiring. We extend our deepest gratitude to both Heather and Lisa for their years of dedicated service to our students, schools, and community. We will miss you both! 

The Garfield Re-2 School Board celebrated outgoing Board President Britton Fletchall at their June 25, 225 school board meeting and declared a vacancy in Director District A.

Fletchall submitted a letter of resignation on June 18 and shared that his decision is rooted in the growth of his business, which now requires more travel and extended time away from the area.

“Serving has never been a burden, but a true motivator,” he explained. “While I value the ability to participate remotely, I believe this level of board service is most effective when done in person.”
