Schools

From Moving to San Francisco

Please edit! This is only a start.

The San Francisco Unified School District utilizes an intra-district school choice system and requires students and parents to submit a selection application. In short, getting into good public school is like hitting a jackpot. You can live in best neighborhood with best public school across your house and not get assigned to it. This is also the main reason why people opt for private schools or move to Bay Area when ready to start family.
