Welcome

Welcome to Gainfield Elementary School!

Since 1941, Gainfield Elementary School has been a cornerstone of education in Southbury, dedicated to nurturing the growth and development of our students. As one of four elementary schools in Region 15, we proudly serve a diverse and vibrant student body of approximately 360 children, supported by a devoted community, engaged parents, an exceptional staff, and a committed Board of Education.

At Gainfield, we believe in creating a warm, inclusive environment where every student is encouraged to reach their full potential. Our guiding principle is to help students “follow the T.R.A.C.K.S.” which stands for Trust, Respect, Accountability, Cooperation, Kindness, and Safety. These values are essential in shaping good citizenship and fostering a supportive, respectful community.

Our team of educators works collaboratively to refine our teaching practices and improve student learning through weekly meetings, data analysis, and ongoing professional development. Our curriculum is designed to challenge students academically across all subjects—reading, writing, mathematics, science, and social studies—while guiding them on their unique educational journeys.
