The teachers are talented, caring and committed. My son had grown and learned so much already in just his second year there.

I attended Clarendon and graduated in 2009. I loved all my teachers and the staff, and I learned soo much in all my grades. I loved every part of this school- the curriculum, the teachers, the activities-and I would reccomend this amazing school to anyone.

When I was touring San Francisco schools, I fell in love with Clarendon. I liked it even more than some of the private schools I looked at. It has it all - foreign language, art, PE, computers, library, music, etc. Plus it has a great community of involved parents and heart. My daughter loves going to school here, and I feel like I won the lotto!
