Redding Elementary School

Redding Elementary School serves a culturally, linguistically, and ethnically diverse group of students who come from all over San Francisco. To the Redding School community, social justice and equity mean providing the highest quality education possible to all students so that they have choices and are empowered to make change in our society. We do this by respecting, valuing, and honoring the unique experiences of our students and their families.

Our staff commits to providing a nurturing and safe learning environment in which all students are expected to achieve their maximum potential in all curricular disciplines. We offer an interdisciplinary program that aligns with State and District Standards that integrates Social Emotional Learning and arts education. Teachers work in collaboration with each other and families to ensure that students are empowered to excel. All of our Redding Dragons are learning Arabic.

At Redding, we believe that joyful learning means teachers provide stimulating and varied experiences for all students, regardless of performance level in academics or language proficiency. We celebrate the achievement of all of our students, and diligently monitor student attendance through our Student Attendance Review Team. We maintain ongoing communication with families through various modes of information sharing that include interpretation and translation. Staff value knowing every student's current achievement level and work together to individualize instruction in order to meet student need. We have high expectations for both students and staff so that students are able to become the best versions of themselves as responsible, respectful participants in society who make positive contributions to the future. We are a community of life-long, joyful learners!
