Thursday, 24 February 2011 05:33 - LOS ANGELES— Parents and guardians who want their children to attend schools located outside of the boundaries of the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) may submit their application requests beginning March 1.
LAUSD will accept application requests for purposes related to Parent Employment, attendance at Specialized Programs and Continuing Enrollment for Senior High Students.
Parent Employment Permits are allowed for students whose parent or guardian is physically employed within the boundaries of the requested school district.
Specialized Program Permits may be granted to allow students to access a special program that is not available in the LAUSD. The program must incorporate this topic - such as Dual Language Immersion, Waldorf Method - into all areas of the core curriculum.
Individual classes or clubs do not meet these criteria such as a robotics, choir, or a Spanish class.
Continuing Enrollment for High School Students Permits may be granted for students in grades 10-12 if the student attended the same school the previous year.
Effective Jan. 1, 2011 a new law, Assembly Bill (AB) 2444, went into effect that simplifies the permit process for students currently holding an approved (2010-2011) permit for a specific school. The law permits a student to continue attendance in the same school without the need to re-apply annually to the district of residence or attendance. When the student matriculates, or there is a change of school placement, a new permit approval will be required. The district of residence can determine if an updated permit is required for your student. Families currently holding permits will be required to submit a renewal application for the 2011-12 school year. Once approved, families will not be required to reapply so long as they continue to meet the conditions under which the original permit was issued.
Parents and guardians may still submit applications for exceptions for requests that fall outside of the three conditions described above. Those applications will be reviewed individually and evaluated on their own merit. Applications for interdistrict (district to district) permits are available online only.
No paper applications will be accepted. The application period will begin on March 1 and end on April 30.
