The Mission Bay School will offer education to 550 pre-kindergarten through fifth-grade students, AND access to a STEM learning hub for San Francisco Unified School District's high school students, and a resource for educators to receive training on new teaching methods.
The city is adopting a new housing policy that could add 31,000 students to the area, according to San Francisco Planning's Housing Element Draft Environmental Impact Report. The district anticipates 700 additional Mission Bay elementary school students due to this growth. The district said in a presentation to the board that the Mission Bay School will provide students easier access to education and will work toward decreasing the district-wide lack of seats available to elementary school students.
