Overview

HMCRA is a small public school in the Castro that is named after the neighborhood’s most famous persona, Harvey Milk. We are committed to developing literacy skills in an enriched environment, science and math skills with an emphasis on hands-on, inquiry-based curriculum and a social studies program that highlights global awareness and student activism. 

Our school offers

  • Civil Rights curriculum through all grades
  • Culinary arts program
  • A newly renovated library
  • Visual and performing arts programs
  • Field Trips in and out of San Francisco
  • Instrumental Music for upper grades
  • Technology enhanced curriculum
  • Before and after school programs have the capacity to serve all our students. Financial aid is available to cover program fees.

Our mission is to empower student learning by teaching awareness, acceptance and non-violence, celebrating our diversity, achieving academic excellence, and fostering strong family-school-community connections. Our overall objective is to guide the development of a well-rounded human being who has the ability, skills and attitude to become a contributing asset to self, family, community, and society.

We have an open door policy to parents, and we believe all staff and parents should be involved in the decision-making process within the school.  At Harvey Milk Civil Rights Academy (HMCRA), you will be encouraged to become an active participant in your child’s educational journey.
