Is transportation provided by the school district to my District Permit School?
No, transportation is not provided for students on a district permit. Parents are responsible for transporting their students.
Can I use my work address for my student to apply?
The Â鶹ÊÓƵ City Unified School District interprets the Allen Bill in the following ways:
- A parent/guardian is required to provide on letterhead a statement from the employer verifying employment and the work address.
- Since our district utilizes addresses for placement, in order to establish residency the student must enroll in the neighborhood school associated with the work address. So for example if the work address is associated with California Middle School the student must enroll in California Middle School (IF) the school has space for the student. If the school does not have the space, the student cannot enroll.
- Once this is complete and the student is attending, the student can then apply for any programs through the High School Specialty Program (HSSP), Open Enrollment (OE) or an Intra-District permit.
- Families cannot use their work address to apply for the HSSP, OE or an Intra-District permit if they are not attending our school(s) through the Allen Bill currently.
- Residency is established by enrolling.
Can I turn in a late application for my student?
All applications must be turned in by 5:00 p.m on May 3, 2024. No late applications will be accepted.
When do I find out if my student is accepted?
Notification will be sent to families through SchoolMint on May 20, 2024. Families will receive the notification based on what preferences (email, text message or both) were selected when registering.
Are translation services available during the application process?
The application uses Google Translate and can be translated into over 100 languages.
My family is moving outside of the SCUSD boundary. What will happen to my student’s acceptance?
If you move outside of the SCUSD boundary, it will void your student’s acceptance offer. You must register your student with the new school district. You can apply for an inter-district permit after you get an approved Inter-District Permit Transfer form by your new district of residence.
I live within the SCUSD boundary, but my student attends a private school. Can my student apply through an Intra-District Permit?
Yes.
I live outside of the SCUSD boundary and one of my students already attends a SCUSD school. Do my other students have sibling preference?
Yes, the student(s) applying will receive sibling priority for inter-district permits.
I am a SCUSD employee and live outside of the SCUSD boundary. Does my student have preference to attend the school I work at?
Yes, the student applying will receive parent employment priority for inter-district permits.
How does the lottery work?
The District Permit application is not a first-come, first-serve basis. You may apply anytime during the application window to be considered.
SCUSD uses a computerized, third-party lottery system to place eligible students at their school or specialty program. A lottery must be implemented if applications exceed the grade capacity at the requested program.
One of the following lottery scenarios will occur:
- Your student is selected for their school or specialty program and receives a notification communication to accept the placement through SchoolMint.
- If your student was not selected, they will be notified that they have been placed on a waitlist* and then be notified if a spot opens up.
What happens if my student doesn’t get offered a spot at the school or specialty program?
You will receive a notification from SchoolMint that the school or program you have applied for has reached space capacity.
Students who apply to a school or specialty program, and have not met the admissions requirements will become ineligible and not be included in the lottery.
