Schools will be CLOSED to students Tuesday, Feb. 10; Student & Family Resources

Dear SFUSD Community,

All SFUSD schools will be CLOSED to students on Tuesday, Feb. 10. 

We understand the strain that school closures place on families, and we will continue to update our website regularly with up-to-date information and community resources. We are grateful for the support of so many partners around the city who have been working around the clock to provide food and other resources to our students and families.

Independent Study Materials

As of today, over 2,655 Independent Study packets have been delivered to community sites and programs around the city. You can visit your local library to print your packet free of cost. SF Public Libraries will be open during their regular hours, which you can find on their website. Children under the age of 8 must be accompanied by a responsible adult. Libraries also have Inclusion Toolkits available at their sites. Digital Independent Study packets are available 24/7 at sfusd.edu. If you have questions about the Independent Study packets, please review these FAQs.

Food Distribution

Today, DCYF distributed 765 breakfast meals from 14 sites and 1625 lunches across 30 sites. Tomorrow, Feb. 10, DCYF will be delivering 1065 breakfasts across 19 sites and 2080 lunches across 42 sites. Here is a list of DCYF food distribution sites throughout the city for children 18 and under. Here’s a map that shows where these sites are located.

In addition, access to weekly groceries from community food pantries and home-delivery sponsored by the SF Marin Food Bank can be found at their website.

Students Served Today at ExCEL Programs

2,000 off-site student program spaces were available and approximately 1000 students attended a program today. Some of these community-based organizations that normally operate after school programs at SFUSD schools are offering student programs at off-site locations, including enrichment, homework support, recreation and meals. Access is limited and spaces will be prioritized for TK-6th grade students who meet certain criteria. Please read carefully to determine if your children are eligible and contact the Community Based Organization directly, to determine if there is capacity to support your student. 143 additional students were at other programs.

Negotiations Updates (Dr. Su’s 2/9/26 Press Conference)

We fully recognize the urgency of reaching a full agreement as quickly as possible. We realize that every day matters for students and that we need to find a swift resolution. The two sides met earlier today for productive conversations, which resulted in important progress toward an agreement. Negotiations are taking place this evening. We remain hopeful and optimistic that continued good-faith negotiations will lead to an agreement that is fair, responsible, and sustainable—one that supports educators while protecting classrooms and critical student services.
