Open Enrollment Program What Is Open Enrollment? The San Diego Unified School District (SDUSD) Open Enrollment Program provides students with the opportunity to attend a school other than their neighborhood school. The Open Enrollment program allows students to apply to any school within the district, with the exception of Magnet schools.
Frequently Asked Questions about the Open Enrollment Program What about transportation? No, the Open Enrollment program does not provide transportation. How do students apply? Use the School Choice application on page 34 of this catalog to apply to attend a school that is not your neighborhood school. Do students who reside in the boundaries of a school (resident students) need to apply through the Open Enrollment program? Resident students do not apply for the Open Enrollment Program. You may verify your school of residence by using the SDUSD online Boundary Lookup or by calling (619) 725-5672. Do all schools offer enrollment to students under the Open Enrollment program? No, enrollment through the Open Enrollment Program is on a space available basis. Submitting a School Choice application for Open Enrollment does not guarantee enrollment in the school. Open Enrollment options may be limited due to legislation that requires students from Program Improvement schools to be seated first. Additionally, some schools may be unable to enroll Open Enrollment applicants due to capacity limits and demands from other programs.
What if a student moves and no longer lives within the boundaries of a school? If you move from the resident boundary of a school, and you would like to continue at that school, you must apply through the Open Enrollment Program to continue at that school the following year. No special priority is given to students who were resident students in the past. Is there an exception for high school students who move? Senior priority is available only to students in good standing who move during the 11th or 12th grade school year and who continue to attend the same school, allowing them to graduate with their classmates. The student does not need to complete a School Choice application. This priority is contingent upon sufficient room in the school, transportation guidelines, and with the principal’s approval. If the student has moved to another district, then an Interdistrict Attendance Permit must be completed and on file (see page 33). Once my student is enrolled, must I reapply each year? District students enrolled under the Open Enrollment Program may continue to middle and high schools in the Open Enrollment school’s feeder pattern, as long as space is available. Open Enrollment students articulate with the Open Enrollment school’s resident students during regular articulation. No application form is required. See pages 25-28 for feeder patterns, listed by high school. The above policy is known as Continuity.

Open Enrollment Program
What is Application Priority, and how does it effect enrollment? At many schools, there are not enough spaces available for every student who applies. In order to assign these seats fairly, applications submitted between November 1 and February 15 are given priority, and all applications received during this time period are randomly sorted and placed on grade level lists according to the priority policies described on page 2. Students are offered enrollment through the Open Enrollment program in the order of these lists. What about siblings? Siblings must apply by February 15 to have priority in the Open Enrollment application process. Applications from siblings of concurrently enrolled students will be randomized and placed at the top of the lists only if received during the priority application period, November 1 through February 15. May a student apply to GATE programs through Open Enrollment? Elementary GATE Cluster Program:
Qualified GATE Cluster elementary students whose resident school does not offer a cluster program may submit a School Choice application. Elementary students needing to enroll in another school because GATE cluster is not offered at the neighborhood and at the current elementary school may request to enroll at another school. It must be submitted in writing with a School Choice application. GATE Seminar Program: Seminar students may apply through Open Enrollment to attend any school. There is no priority for seminar students and there is no guarantee that a seminar program may be available at the requested school. Enrollment in a seminar cluster school does not require an application for identified seminar students in that cluster.
What about specialized high school courses not offered at the Neighborhood or Current School? School Choice does give priority to students wanting a special course not offered at the neighborhood or current school. The request is handled on case-by-case basis. Students needing to enroll in a course that is not offered at the neighborhood high school may request a special exception to enroll in the course at another school. It must be submitted in writing with a School Choice application and must be received by the February 15 deadline for students currently enrolled in the district. The following applies to requests for a specialized course: hh The special exception is available for high school students only. hh The student may attend the school only while enrolled in the course. hh The school must have available space in the course. hh The request will not be granted at Magnet schools.
What if I do not submit an application by February 15th? Late applications will not be accepted from currently enrolled district students. Only students who are new to the district or have a change of address which changes their eligibility may apply after February 15th. These applications will be processed in date and time order.
