- In 1879, San Francisco had 15 grammar schools, three exclusively for girls (Denman, Rincon, and Broadway), three exclusively for boys (Lincoln, Washington, and Union), and nine co-educational (Spring Valley, Hayes Valley, North and South Cosmopolitan, Valencia Street, Eighth Street, Mission, Jefferson, and Clement). In addition, co-ed Potrero School served both primary and grammar pupils. Students expected to attend grammar school for seven or eight years. Several grammar schools survive to this day, including James Denman Middle School, Lowell High School (formerly Union Grammar School), and Spring Valley Science Elementary School. Washington Grammar School is believed to have been destroyed in a fire in February 1930. Three more grammar schools, Crocker, Hamilton, and Horace Mann, were created in 1913. These were the final grammar schools opened in San Francisco as the later pupils of grammar school age would attend junior highs (first opened in 1922) and middle schools (opened in 1978). (en)
