An independent all-girls high school, San Francisco Girls' School promises to be a community of girls, from a range of backgrounds and interests, who come together to learn, to engage each other in dialogue, to challenge each other, and to build their dreams.
We believe a STEM-focused curriculum builds logical and critical thinking skills, a data and research-based perspective, and the ability to learn from failure that will be critical to life in the future regardless of our graduates' careers.
Our interdisciplinary curriculum is anchored within a strong humanities, arts, and leadership program that brings ethical and empathic thinking and a creative and outside the box approach to problem-solving.
Our graduates will become the change makers of tomorrow, leading the way to close the gender gap in STEM and leadership.
