The stats are troubling-47% of SFSD students qualify for free/reduced lunches. Their family's income is not enough to make ends meet. That makes it difficult to support school fundraisers. Operation Hope & Caring helps! Get your tickets to the SF STORM game to support schools!
Summer Camps are here!
We are pleased to offer many fun educational experiences for students this summer to continue learning, growing and practicing Spanish with the fabulous teachers at Sonia Sotomayor! We've got a great variety of camps available, please review them using the link below.
