The Graduate Profile
We want each San Francisco student to be ready to succeed in the 21st century.
Ready to think, learn and grow.
We help our students master the fundamentals they need to know to succeed—like math, English, computer science and art—and develop problem solving and critical thinking skills.
Ready to create.
We provide opportunities for our students to be creative and at the center of solutions. They tackle problems like the California drought or work to improve their physical school environments.
Ready for career. Ready for life.
We help our students acquire the knowledge, skills and experience they need to navigate the real world. We partner with companies like Xoom and Salesforce to expose students to real challenges and learn how to solve them.
Ready to tackle a changing world.
We equip students with the skills they need to succeed in the future. They learn new languages, understand new technologies or participate in local apprenticeships.
Ready to lead. Ready to work with others.
We organize activities in teams to help students learn to work together. We encourage students to work with partners outside the classroom, too—such as family members or mentors—to prepare them to lead and collaborate.
Ready to be their best.
We believe in each and every one of our students. We nurture their growth and teach them life lessons so they can recognize their purpose and value. We encourage each student to reach their full potential, whether they require extra support or a new challenge.
