"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."
