Welcome to Henry J. Kalfas Elementary

 Here at Kalfas, supporting children academically and emotionally is of the utmost importance. We encourage our parents and guardians to be a part of their child’s learning. The message I convey to students and staff every day is the importance of being kind. Together, we can support our students to be the best they can be as they prepare for the intermediate part of their education in the sister schools. Thank you for trusting us with your child. “
