School Tours will begin again in late October.
Tour dates for the 2026-27 enrollment season are not yet available. However, tours will be held on the Peabody school grounds on (most) Tuesdays from 9:00 AM to 10:15 AM, starting in late October and ending in mid-January 2026. Plan to arrive by 8:55 and enter through the main entrance at 251 6th Ave.
We discuss our special education program on our regular tours. However, there will be one tour offered in January for families interested in diving deeper into our Special Day Classrooms. This tour will begin at 8:30 AM and can be signed up for on the centralized SFUSD tour portal. Our SDC program is a cross-categorical program and does not receive the same support from SFUSD that autism-focused classrooms receive.
Sign up for a tour using the SFUSD centralized signup form at sfusd.edu/tours. (available October 2025) Please visit the SFUSD website for more information about all the great schools in SFUSD.
We will have plenty of tour slots available on each tour date. Please do not bring children on tours. Please do not call our office to make a reservation.

Overview
George Peabody is a successful, safe, and small elementary school with a family-feel located in San Francisco's Inner Richmond neighborhood. Our talented and experienced staff provides each student with meaningful learning experiences through purposeful instruction and a well articulated curriculum. We work to ensure that all students learn the skills and knowledge needed to build the foundation to lead successful lives and become productive citizens. We also strive to ensure that every student leaves George Peabody with a positive elementary school experience full of fond memories, close friendships, a love of learning, and a curiosity of the world beyond San Francisco.
We provide many unique learning opportunities to educate the whole child. These include our social emotional learning curriculum Kimochis, PeabodyOutside (based on Education Outside program), PeabodyWorks (a physical and character education program inspired by our partnership with Playworks) and a well articulated arts curriculum. Additionally, our students can participate in a variety of afterschool programs run by our PTA.
Our community is made stronger through monthly community building events organized by our PTA and spirit days planned by the Student Council.
