For nearly 100 years, we have been located in the beautiful and historic San Diego neighborhood of Mission Hills. Our school's magnet focus is supported by math and science labs staffed by certificated teachers. We have an active group of parents who volunteer in classrooms, publish the monthly Grant Slant newsletter, arrange visual and performing arts programs during school, and coordinate the Thursday Kids Club, which provides enrichment classes for our students after school.

We've come a long way since the graduating class of 1917.
