DEDICATION CEREMONY HELD FOR GARFIELD ELEMENTARY WELLNESS CENTER
A dedication ceremony for the new Wellness Center at Garfield Elementary School was held on February 12, 2020. The center will be housed in a historic Pacific Electric sub-station that once served the “Red Car” railway system in Orange County. With the vision of the Santa Ana Unified School District Board of Education and input from the community, the 113-year old building has been fully renovated and equipped with a bathroom, kitchen and storage space. The new facility is a welcome addition to the school and the neighborhood. Click here to view photos from the event.
