Welcome to Gainfield Elementary School.  We thank you for visiting our website; it is a great place to learn more about our school. 

Gainfield is a vibrant and active learning community where more than 500 young learners demonstrate curiosity, knowledge, talent and kindness throughout the school year.  These characteristics are also exhibited by our dedicated faculty and staff who are committed to meeting the needs of all our students.           

Gainfield families have a strong connection to the school and are very important to our effectiveness.  The Parent Teacher Organization is very supportive and provides the children with numerous enrichment opportunities and special materials for teachers.
     Gainfield has built a tradition of high quality education for all children.  Our success is a result of having a talented professional staff, rich curriculum programs, strong support services, and a school community that understands and supports our mission. 

Collaboration is a key concept at Gainfield Elementary School.  We believe that our mission of excellence is achieved most effectively when people work together for a shared and meaningful purpose.   We also believe there are some basic characteristics that can be found in any “good school.”  We know you will experience the following when you visit Gainfield:

A rich, rigorous curriculum where students are encouraged as active participants in their own learning
A school community that fosters caring and excellence
On-going communication between school and home
A nurturing environment where each member of the school community…big or small…is valued and respected in order to achieve their fullest potential.

We invite you to visit so you can experience, first hand, the joy and excitement of learning at Gainfield!

Interim Principal
