Kittredge School

Kittredge School is a small, fully accredited independent school serving kindergarten through eighth grade in San Francisco, with a proven commitment to supporting students with ADD/ADHD. With an average class size of just 12 students and a dedicated faculty, Kittredge creates an individualized learning environment where each student receives personalized attention. The school emphasizes strong home-school communication, ensuring families stay actively involved in their child's progress and any support strategies.

The curriculum combines core academics with enrichment through specialist instruction in Spanish, art, PE, and performing arts. Students benefit from a supportive environment that integrates learning through field trips and extracurricular activities. Kittredge's small enrollment (58 students total) and low student-to-teacher ratio make it well-suited for children who thrive in structured, intimate settings where their individual learning needs can be closely monitored and addressed.

Founded in 1944, Kittredge maintains a rolling admissions process with an 80% acceptance rate. Tuition is $25,800 for elementary and $26,600 for middle school. The school is nonsectarian, co-ed, and welcomes a diverse student body (67% students of color). Summer programs are available, and the school is a member of the National Independent Private Schools Association.
