Welcome to our inaugural kindergarten class 2026-2027.

As we prepare to open our very first Kindergarten cohort in August 2026, we are filled with excitement—and deep gratitude.

This milestone is more than the launch of a new class. It marks the beginning of a vibrant, innovative learning community at SF STEAM Academy, built from the ground up with intention, heart, and vision.

A Thank You to Our Founding Families

You are more than our first enrollments—you are our first believers!

Thank you for trusting us with your children, for believing in our vision, and for partnering with us to create something meaningful and lasting. Together, we are building a school where every child is truly known, supported, and inspired.

What Makes Our Kindergarten Program Unique

In our STEAM-centered classroom, students will:

- Engage in hands-on, interdisciplinary projects

- Explore real-world questions through inquiry and discovery

- Build strong foundations in literacy and mathematics

- Collaborate with peers in a supportive, small-group setting

- Develop social-emotional skills through reflection and communication

- Express creativity through art, design, and movement

Welcoming Amanda: A Teacher Who Brings Learning to Life

 Building a Community Rooted in Connection and Curiosity

This first year represents the foundation of a connected, growing school community grounded in curiosity, creativity, collaboration, and meaningful relationships.

Join Our Journey

We are currently enrolling for Kindergarten (2026–2027 school year) and our Summer Camp Program. Enrollment will continue on a rolling basis as we expand through Grade 5.

 Best regards,

Dr. Rebecca Hawley

Redefine Success

It All Begins Here

Confidence doesn’t always arrive with a bold entrance. Sometimes, it builds quietly, step by step, as we show up for ourselves day after day. It grows when we choose to try, even when we’re unsure of the outcome. Every time you take action despite self-doubt, you reinforce the belief that you’re capable. Confidence isn’t about having all the answers — it’s about trusting that you can figure it out along the way.

The key to making things happen isn’t waiting for the perfect moment; it’s starting with what you have, where you are. Big goals can feel overwhelming when viewed all at once, but momentum builds through small, consistent action. Whether you’re working toward a personal milestone or a professional dream, progress comes from showing up — not perfectly, but persistently. Action creates clarity, and over time, those steps forward add up to something real.

You don’t need to be fearless to reach your goals, you just need to be willing. Willing to try, willing to learn, and willing to believe that you’re capable of more than you know. The road may not always be smooth, but growth rarely is. What matters most is that you keep going, keep learning, and keep believing in the version of yourself you’re becoming.
