I currently have a 1st and 4th grader at Lafayette and we couldn't be happier. The teachers and the parent community are what really make this school shine. My kids have never had a teacher we didn't love and the PTA is strong and welcoming, raising thousands of dollars each year to provide wonderful programs for our kids such as Art in Action, PE, Smart Boards, Artists in Residence, and an awe inspiring school musical. We feel so lucky to be part of the Lafayette community.

Lafayette is a great place to learn. The teachers are really great and teach in a way so everyone can learn. The school is so diverse and fun. I made so many friends and had awesome experiences in all of the six years I was there. Go dolphins!

This is the second year that my child is in the auditiroy/oral pre-k class at Lafayette elementary school and we love it! The teacher is outstanding and does a great job with the kids. I will be keeping my child in this school till the 5th grade. The principal, Mrs. Ruby Brown does a great job with her staff and the PTA is outstanding. I would recommend this school.

Great neighborhood school. Most kids are from the outer Richmond, and the families are committed to the school and the neighborhood.

I can not be happier with Lafayette!!! My daughter is in kindergarten and LOVES her school, her class, her teacher and fellow students. I love the diversity of the student body, the great involvement of the parents, the school staff, the teachers and wonderful Mrs. Brown. The PTA is super involved and very inclusive of anyone who wants to help in any way, big or small. Everyone is super friendly, and while it is a larger school I feel like we are part of a small loving community. My daughter is thriving and we as a family are making great friends and great memories as well!

Lafayette is an incredibly warm and welcoming school. The teachers are passionate about their job, and the principal is fabulous. The parent community is incredibly involved and committed to the success of the school! My son adores his teacher, who is very challenging academically, while also fair, kind, and passionate about helping each child rise to his/ her full potential. We feel so fortunate to be part of this school. I have a son in 3rd grade and an incoming kindergartner who is excited to start next year!

My 1st grader comes home from school everyday BEAMING and nearly always says, "Mom, I'm ready to do my homework!" as soon as he walks in the door. When I first asked him if he liked his new teacher, he said, "No, I don't like her, I LOVE her!" Lafayette teachers are amazing. They have the right mix of challenge and support and go above and beyond to create a positive learning environment for our kids. A couple weeks ago, two teachers were at my home until 10pm at night helping with the grant writing committee!! The parent community is made up of the hardest working volunteers I have ever seen. They treat their volunteer jobs like actual paid positions. The principal, Ms. Brown, puts her students first and does a great job supporting the teachers and parents. Attending Lafayette makes you feel like you really did win the lottery!

This school emphasizes community. There is strong student, parent, teacher/staff, and community participation. Amazing things happen when so many people come together to ensure a quality education for our youth. There is wonderful access to so many resources: art, music, drama, sports, environment, language programs, civic responsibility, as well as the standard education, all under the guidance of a strong, caring principal. I have a 4th grader and a recently graduated middle schooler

Our daughter is now in 1st grade at Lafayette and we are as ever, impressed by the level of teaching, the cohesive community and the dedicated and hard working PTA. The teachers have high standards and strive to keep the students challenged. In addition, every family is made to feel a part of the school and community building is a priority. Our daughter is thriving and we have really enjoyed being active members of the parent community. Lafayette is truly a gem!

As the parent of a kindergartener at Lafayette, I have been very impressed with the classroom instruction and parent involvement at the school. It has high academic expectations along with a friendly, supportive teaching staff and community. This "hidden gem" in SFUSD won't be hidden for long.

Our child just started kindergarten and we really love Lafayette so far. The PTA members are amazing--hardworking, caring, and inviting--and the PTA membership is quite large at the school. The teachers clearly love their work and there is camaraderie, affection, and team spirit between the teachers and the principal--the AWESOME Ruby Brown--which is absolutely key to a school's success. What a gem.

The bottom line at this wonderful school is that if it doesn't meet your expectations, it's your own fault. The opportunity for meaningful involvement here is astonishing.

Lafayette is a great place. The teachers care deeply about the kids and do a great job teaching them and helping them grow as individuals. Mrs. Ruby Brown, the principal, does a great job of keeping the school on track and on target. The Lafayette community and the PTA are most excellent and helpful people.

We've had a great experience so far and we are so happy to be part of the Lafayette community. My daughter is finishing up a wonderful Kindergarten year. She loves school, has made lots of friends, learned a ton, and is even in the school play. The PTA is active and it feels like a neighborhood school in the midst of a large city.

Great PTA, great teachers, and great after school programs! My child is very happy and confident.

Posted September 23, 2009

In addition to being a great school in terms of academics & arts, Lafayette was the only school I visited when I was evaluating kindergarten placement that emphasized character development as a key component of our childrens' education and of the community. The kids say a pledge of respect each morning after the pledge of allegiance and the school cultivates 'conflict managers' from the 2nd grade on so that children learn how to mediate when disagreement occurs. My son's class is really like a family - very supportive of one another and really caring in how they interact. We feel so happy that our children are learning not only how to think and how to execute, but how to be good people in the community and in the world. Go Lafayette!

Summer program 1

About the program
  • Each program has an academic, enrichment and physical activity component. The programs are based on a youth development model and include project based learning activities. The summer programs are operated by community based organizations that are contracted by SFUSD to provide the services based on grants to the school from California Department of Education. Each organization has a site specific enrollment process. Priority enrollment goes to the students from the school site. Students from other SFUSD schools are eligible to apply though in many of the elementary schools there is more demand than available slots. Funding changes year to year and program offerings change.
