Santa Ana Unified School District (SAUSD) open enrollment will be from January 13th-February 28th 2014. How to apply:

Parents/guardians of students who wish to apply for any school within the

district, excluding Fundamental schools, may obtain an Intra District Transfer form from their current school site or online www.sausd.us.

Intra District transfer requests should be returned to your student’s current

school office no later than February 28, 2014 by 4:00 p.m. If there are more requests than spaces available, a lottery will be held. Students who are

not selected from the lottery will be placed on a waiting list. The student’s current school will inform you if the transfer request has been accepted.

Transfers submitted after February 28, 2014 will be placed on a waiting list.

Students will be called from the waiting list, in the order selected, as space is available. Permits are due before February 28, 2014. This will place your
