Why Kittredge?

Kittredge School is dedicated to providing a challenging academic program in a warm and nurturing environment. With a rich history spanning 80 years, our school was established by the Kittredge family and is located on Lake Street in San Francisco’s Richmond District.

Individualized academic support develops a love of learning that lasts a lifetime. Small classrooms provide strong relationships. This meaningful rapport is integral to a safe environment where students feel secure, happy, and connected.

We are proud to be a fully-accredited, non-sectarian, private, independent, and non-discriminatory academic school for students in Kindergarten through 8th Grade.
