Welcome back, SFS! We kicked off the 2026-27 school year, celebrating 60 amazing years of cultivating confident humanitarians.

Our campus was full of excitement as students, families, and alumni joined together for our cherished Opening Ceremony traditions—including a special water ceremony featuring alumni from every decade and students from every grade for our 60th!

Here’s to an unforgettable year ahead at The San Francisco School!

This school year is our 60th anniversary of SFS! Our theme for this year is 60 Years of Cultivating Confident Humanitarians.

In celebration, we welcomed our staff back to campus with new SFS branded jackets. Some of us were just a bit excited 😆

The Bird Project takes flight in 2nd grade! 🐦

Our students explored the amazing world of birds through science, art, music, Spanish, and more. From real-life birdwatching adventures to hands-on creative projects, every student discovered the wonder of birds in their own unique way. This is learning that soars—full of curiosity, creativity, and joy!

Students were excited to share what they learned with their families at the Ornithology Expo last week!
