COVID-19 UPDATES 
YAP Online Classes We appreciate your patience as we developed a summer program that served the needs of our students and families while also adhering to the guidelines from the city health officials in San Francisco. After much consideration, SFAI has decided to move forward with offering remote learning for our students this summer. The decision was not easy, but considering the circumstances and uncertainty, we feel it's the most prudent way to go. In the coming weeks, we will be developing a family and student orientation, finalizing the summer course schedule, and sending welcome emails to all enrolled students. In the meantime, please note some highlights below that detail out some program changes for this summer. ​​​​​​​
