Noe Valley

Theresa S. Mahler Early Education School is located in the Noe Valley neighborhood of San Francisco. Our community provides a safe learning environment that respects, cherishes and encourages the individual learner for his or her own uniqueness, while honoring diversity, providing the child with a sense of belonging, and nourishing the individual’s developmental and learning style.

Home of the Bulldogs! We are a diverse, comprehensive middle school in the heart of Noe Valley with a thriving Spanish Immersion and Visual and Performing Arts Program.  

As a multilingual, multiracial, and community-driven school, at Alvarado we provide enriching, meaningful learning and prepare every student to thrive in middle school and beyond. Through deep engagement in the arts, music, science, technology, and language—and a strong foundation in academic and social-emotional skills—our students are ready to excel in whatever future they pursue.
