Located in sunny Potrero Hill, we are proud to feature a growing Dual Spanish Immersion Pathway with classes in Kindergarten through 4th Grade (2012/2013) and a
n English Language Development Pathway showing rising test scores. Come be a part of our growing community! As our motto says, we are “Learning Together.” We strive each day to create a cohesive, cooperative environment that celebrates our diversity. We want our students to graduate from Daniel Webster with not only academic excellence and a love of learning but with respect for themselves and the many rich cultures that make up our world. We start every Monday with a whole school morning circle. Teachers, staff, families and community members, and even students and teachers from our own preschool, Potrero Kids at Daniel Webster join us to start the day at our morning circle. After Principal Betti's announcements, some mornings a teacher leads us in a few minutes of exercise to wake up and energize our brains for our day at school. Some mornings we cheer for fellow students who receive "white tickets" for random acts of kindness, or we hope that our class is selected for the Golden Trash Can Award - given to the cleanest classroom each week. And some times a class will do a special song or be chosen to lead us in our school pledge:
"Today I pledge to be the best possible me. No matter how good I am, I promise that I can become better!”
Before we head to class, we shout out, loud and proud, “Enjoy your day of learning!”
