S F Community Elementary K-8 School

We joined this community when my daughter started kindergarten in 2012 and we are exceptionally pleased with our experience on every front. It’s a small school – under 300 kids – with a warm, caring, progressive, whole child approach. We were drawn to the project-​based approach to learning and also the fact that children stay with the same teacher for 2 years. Plus, the upper grades max class size is 25, which is much smaller when compared to the middle schools in the District. The principal is a fantastic, responsive, clear leader. My daughter’s teacher is exceptional and, really, every teacher I’ve come in contact at SFC with has been an impressive, big-​thinking educator. My daughter is happy, learning, thriving and I wouldn’t know what else to want for her. There are a lot of great public schools in San Francisco, but SFC is a perfect fit for us.
