San Francisco public schools reopen to all students on August 16 for the first time since the school district sent pupils home in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
While students in lower grades briefly returned late last academic year, most instruction has been conducted via computer screen over the last 17 months.Returning to in-person instruction is welcome relief for families who have clamored to see the San Francisco Unified School District bring its students, teachers, and staff back to its campuses in a safe manner due to the ongoing health crisis.
