Global Reach, Deep Roots

Hiba Academy is excited to bring a truly transformative education to the San Francisco Bay Area. Set to open in Fall 2026, we are a bilingual international school that will serve Pre-K to Grade 5 students. At capacity, approximately 400 children will thrive in our dual-language educational environment, where they will learn English and Chinese not as discrete academic subjects but as languages of instruction across the curriculum. In the longer term, we plan to expand to a full Pre-K to grade 12 provision as our learning community grows.

At Hiba, we foster a love for learning, deep understanding of language and culture, and prepare preschool to middle school-aged students to be global bridge-builders. As America’s gateway to the Asia-Pacific region, San Francisco embodies the global citizenship and intercultural understanding that are core to our ethos and values.
