There are several options for enrollment in schools away from your home attendance area:

• Magnet Schools and Magnet Centers
• Permits With Transportation (PWT);
• Open Enrollment

Other types of permits may be available in special circumstances if the desired school has available classroom seats. Such permits could include:

• sibling permit (to enroll in a school where a brother or sister is already enrolled);
• child care permit (to enroll in a school that serves the attendance area address where a younger student is cared for every day after school hours by a known child care agency or private organization or a verifiable child care provider);
• intra-district and inter-district parent employment-related transfer permit (to enroll in a school that serves the attendance area address where the child's parent/guardian is reguarly employed).

For additional information on the district's Permits with Transportation and Open Enrollment programs, call (213) 241-6414.

If you would like to learn more about obtaining a permit outside of the attendance area of your child's school, but still within the LAUSD, please call your child's local school. For additional information on inter-district permits, call the LAUSD's Permits and Student Transfers Office at (213) 745-1967.
