Garfield Elementary

Garfield Elementary sits in the heart of San Francisco's North Beach neighborhood, one of the city's most storied and walkable communities, just steps from Washington Square Park and the iconic energy of the city. The school shows particular strength in science, which stands out for families who want their elementary-aged kids building that kind of curiosity early. It's a solid neighborhood option for families who love urban living and want a school embedded in a tight-knit, culturally rich community — the kind of place where the city itself feels like an extension of the classroom.
