The school used to be an elemtery school. It's now the Sanchez Art Center, a mix of visual and performance art.

From the website: "In 1996, a group of artists, volunteers, and local residents, in cooperation with the City of Pacifica, leased an abandoned elementary school building that they subsequently converted into the Sanchez Art Center.

In 1998, with a neighborhood grant from the Peninsula Community Foundation, a team of local artists, youth, and family members completed Pacifica's only large-scale mural, containing images that celebrate community spirit and commitment to diversity.

In 2000, the Mary Harris Arts Education Room was established for art classes and summer art camps. In 2007, with support from the First National Bank at Linda Mar, our Ceramics Lab opened for classes and ceramics firing.

The Art Center is home to the Art Guild of Pacifica, whose 200 members volunteer for exhibitions, events, and gallery sitting, as well as serving on the center's committees and board.

The Sanchez Art Center is a non-profit organization. Funding comes from grants, donations, art classes, art sales, and art studio rentals. We rely on the volunteer efforts of our studio artists, members of the Art Guild of Pacifica, and the community to help carry out our programs for the community." (visit link)
