The Hamlin School

The Hamlin School educates girls to meet the challenges of their time and inspires them to become extraordinary thinkers and innovators, courageous leaders, and individuals of integrity.

The Hamlin School is a Kindergarten through Eighth Grade all-girls' school in San Francisco. Our educational program aims to develop the intellect, character and citizenship of each girl to its highest potential. Passionate educators – architects of the student experience at Hamlin – design units of inquiry and study that inspire our girls to be innovative thinkers, collaborators, and leaders who demonstrate compassion, courage, and integrity. Hamlin girls are proud of their individual and collective achievements and embrace their failures as opportunities to deepen learning. The girls value hard work and accept struggle and ambiguity as necessary parts of the learning process. Over their years at Hamlin, girls build confidence, tenacity, and resilience by engaging in an intellectually demanding and stimulating academic program.

We are a vibrant, inclusive community where diversity of thought and experience is respected and viewed as essential to excellence. We welcome and benefit from the perspectives of people who differ in culture, ethnicity, family structure, financial capability, learning style, physical ability, race, religion, and sexual orientation. At Hamlin, myriad voices speak and are heard; active engagement of all is expected and important for the strength of the School community. Our shared values bind us together. Our interdependence and our individual differences are worthy of celebration. 

Please note: We do not accept applications for Grade 8.
