GUADALUPE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Guadalupe Elementary is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the San Francisco Unified school district, located in San Francisco, CA with about 394 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 5th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 20 teachers, Guadalupe Elementary has a student/teacher ratio of about 19:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Situated on Prague Street, the school acts as a neighborhood hub for families in the 94112 zip code. Like many schools within the SFUSD, Guadalupe Elementary benefits from being part of a larger district-wide network that provides various resources, professional development for staff, and initiatives aimed at ensuring equitable educational outcomes.
