The San Francisco Unified School District announced a shortlist of schools potentially facing closure or merger, emphasizing significant under-enrollment and disrepair as critical factors.
Closure of the highlighted schools could save the district around $22 million each year while impacting the education of approximately 2,000 students and resulting in potential layoffs for about 600 teachers and staff.
Jean Parker Elementary, Sutro Elementary, and El Dorado Elementary are among the schools identified for closure, with analysis indicating they are functioning at only 36% to 38% of their capacity.
Students from the schools proposed for closure will have options to relocate to other local schools that are at or near capacity, such as Gordon J. Lau and John Yehall Chin Elementary.
