Pasadena Unified School District (PUSD) is excited to offer a great mix of school choices to their community through 2019-2020 Open Enrollment/School Choice. Online applications for students, who live within the district’s attendance boundaries, as well as children of PUSD employees, will be accepted through Feb. 1, 2019 at openenrollment.info. Selection is by random lottery and is not based on when an application is submitted.

In the early hours of the application period, which began Jan. 10, their site had some technical issues that have now been resolved. Applications submitted Jan. 10, 2019 between 12 a.m. and 9:30 a.m. were not recorded in the system. If you submitted an application during these hours and did not receive a confirmation number, you will have to re-submit your application at openenrollment.info before the Feb. 1 deadline. PUSD apologizes for any inconvenience this may cause. Resubmitting does not affect placement, since selection is by random lottery.

While all students who live within PUSD boundaries are assured placement in their neighborhood school, the district’s annual Open Enrollment-School Choice offers families an opportunity to apply to themed, magnet, or specialized schools and programs outside the boundaries of their school of residence.

Through Pasadena Unified’s Open Enrollment/School Choice, you can apply to attend dual language immersion, magnet schools, International Baccalaureate, College & Career Academies and more.

If you have questions, please contact the Office of Enrollment at (626) 396-3639.
