Neighborhood

Named after the historic Mission Dolores built in 1776, the Mission District is San Francisco’s oldest neighborhood. The Mission is vibrant, eclectic, and growing—well-known for its colorful murals, upscale restaurants, old-school taquerias, low-key dive bars, and craft cocktail lounges.

The Mission is home to the 16-acre Mission Dolores Park, a popular spot for enjoying the outdoors, picnicking, and taking in sweeping skyline views. A walkable design along with access to BART and Muni makes getting around from the Mission District a breeze.

School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
