San Francisco International is a free public school opening in August 2009.  We are currently enrolling 9th graders for the 2009 – 2010 school year.  The school serves a student population of newly arrived immigrants who have been in the country four years or less and are still learning English.  All of our teachers are trained to support students to improve their speaking, writing, and reading skills in English.  Working in small groups, students learn academic content, art, music and technology through exciting, rigorous, hands-on projects as they learn their new language, prepare for college, and explore career options for their future.  There is no tuition for students!  SFIHS is  an SFUSD school with open enrollment to all recent immigrant students.
