We are one of the oldest elementary schools in San Francisco.​

As one of the first public elementary schools in the city, Garfield has been providing a rich academic environment for local children for more than 100 years. Today, Garfield is a small, tight-knit community serving approximately 200 children of diverse cultural and economic backgrounds in grades TK-5.

Garfield Elementary offers general education classes for TK-5, a Cantonese Immersion Program for grades K-5, and Special Day Classes (SDC) for children K-5 with mild to moderate autism; Garfield’s after-school programs provide care from school dismissal to 6:00 PM every school day.
