The Garrett Heights Elementary-Middle School community came together for an unforgettable Fall Festival — and what a celebration it was! The event was well-attended by our scholars, families, and community partners, and the joy on everyone’s faces said it all.
This year’s festival featured horse rides, our very own pumpkin patch, carnival games, food vendors, face painting, and more! Families laughed, played, and created memories that will last a lifetime.
A brand-new addition this year was our Family “Scare Row,” where families decorated tables and handed out candy to scholars as they strolled through the festival. Each table showcased incredible creativity, but one family truly stood out — the Irvin family! Their table featured smoke, flashing lights, and full costumes that took spooky fun to a whole new level. Congratulations to the Irvins and thank you to all families who participated — your spirit made the “Scare Row” a huge hit!
The main new attraction of this year’s festival was the Haunted Annex, presented by our Middle School team. This haunted school experience was completely designed and run by GHEMS students and teachers — from eerie lighting and themed music to spooky face paint and chilling performances. The Haunted Annex delivered the perfect mix of fright and fun, thrilling both students and adults alike.
We are so proud of our GHEMS scholars, staff, and families for making this year’s Fall Festival one of the best yet. Events like these remind us of the power of community, creativity, and connection here at Garrett Heights.
🧡 Thank you to everyone who came out and made the GHEMS Fall Festival 2025 such a success! We can’t wait to see you again next year for even more fun, laughter, and memories.
