A WORD
Superintendent Richard A. Carranza
Dear Parents, Guardians and Students:
T
hank you for choosing San Francisco
public schools. Our city is fortunate to
have many different schools for you
to explore.
While we pride ourselves in our diverse
offerings, I can also assure you that no
matter which school your child attends, there will be some
things you can count on. Our district has highly educated
teachers who believe in providing all students with rigorous
learning experiences that build strong thinking habits and
support mastery of skills to prepare them for lifelong success.
We value diversity and are committed to supporting students
from all backgrounds and learning styles. Every school offers
students visual arts, music, physical education and access to
libraries as well as out-of-school learning resources.
As a parent of a current SFUSD student, I have been through
the process myself and I know how valuable it can be to learn
about schools first hand. This guide, our multi-lingual website
and Educational Placement Center enrollment counselors are
here to assist you with the SFUSD school application process.

SHAPING THE FUTURE
OF OUR CHILDREN
TOGETHER
“To provide early childhood education programs in a safe, caring, and nurturing
environment that promotes each child’s social-emotional, physical, and cognitive
growth and competency. We strive to validate the cultural and linguistic heritage
of each child and to support families in maintaining their children’s physical and
mental health.”
-SFUSD’s Early Education Department Mission Statement
WHO WE ARE
The Early Education
Department (EED) of the
School District (SFUSD)
has been serving children
proudly since 1943.
Started during World War
II to help working mothers
find childcare, the EED
has evolved over the last
seven decades to become
far more developmentally
enriching than its early
16 Discover
role. Today, we educate
over 4,500 children
annually, including infants,
toddlers, preschoolers,
transitional kindergarteners, as well as after-school
students to ensure quality
educational experiences.
San Francisco’s rich ethnic,
cultural and linguistic
tapestry is well represented in our student
population, and we design
our curricula and programming to accommodate
their incredible diversity.
Children and their families
can take advantage of
our unique programs and
enrichment activities in
schools throughout the
city five days a week. Our
teaching staff brings years
of experience and inspiring
talent to every classroom,
whether your child is
enrolled in Pre-K, TK or
Out-of-School Time (OST).
As part of the SFUSD, the
Early Education Department (EED) has adopted
the California Common
Core Standards to align
with the CA Learning
Foundations, ensuring
authentic early learning
on the road to college and
career readiness. In order
to eventually prepare our
graduating high-school
students for the option
of enrolling in a four-year
undergraduate degree,
pursuing a successful
career and living a healthy
life, we start working with
children early with the
goal of ensuring that every
child who completes our
EED program is ready for
kindergarten. We strive to
provide access and equity,
aim to improve student
achievement, and hold
ourselves accountable to
students and their families.
We believe that academic
and social-emotional
successes of students
are strengthened by the
partnerships with their
families—a philosophy
that not only fosters the
lifetime success of the
individual but also of the
greater school community.

The Montessori Method:
Developed by Maria
Montessori over a century
ago, this educational approach nurtures a child’s
natural sense of discovery
and independence by
using multi-sensory,
hands-on techniques
and emphasizing socialemotional skills through
meaningful community
activities, self-expression
and collaborative work.

The Early Education
Department offers both

OUR PHILOSOPHIES
Additionally, classroom assessments are conducted
to support teachers in
creating rich educational
environments and serve
as tools to help parents
monitor student growth
and progress. Since
prioritizing early literacy
development at every
site, the EED has been
particularly successful in
designing curricula that
supports meaningful and
age-appropriate reading,
writing, listening and oral
language development,
while fostering classroom
environments that inspire
creativity and curiosity. In
addition, our dual language learning opportunities offer space for both
native and non-native
Spanish- and Cantonese
speaking children to
celebrate their diversity and strengthen their
language skills in both the
home language as well as
English. The EED embraces
the essential principles of
early childhood development aligned with the
California Preschool
Learning Foundations
and the “12 Principles of
Child Development” of the
National Association for
the Education of Young
Children. We design our
school programs using
four district-approved
educational approaches as
inspiration:

The EED operates 35 sites
throughout the city of San
Francisco, including 23
elementary schools (ES)
that range from Pre-K to
8th grade and 12 early
education schools (EES)
that specialize solely in
offering Pre-K and TK
grades, and Out-of-School
Time (OST) programs.
Our early education
schools are open five
days a week between the
hours of 7:30 a.m. and
6:00 p.m. throughout
the year, offering both
school-day and full-time
options. Each school
offers unique programs
and enrichment activities.
In addition to offering
in-depth educational
programs, our schools
open the doors to many
other opportunities for
students and their families.
We provide support
services including program
specialists, curriculum and
developmental experts,
social workers, mental
health professionals, as
well as family literacy
programs, parent engagement activities, gardening
and environmental literacy programs, visual and
performing arts projects
and much more.

aligned with California’s
Common Core Standards.
To best support a young
child’s skills and emergent
development, we seek to
integrate social-emotional
development, physical/
motor development, math,
science, language and
literacy, and visual/performing arts—a constructivist approach to learning
that aligns the district’s
priorities and goals with
the holistic development
of the child. The EED uses
the California Department
of Education’s “Desired
Results for Children and
Families” framework to
support student learning
and growth. For more
information, please see

Screenings and reading
assessments are given to
4-year-old or 5-year-old
Pre-K, TK, and OST

School-day Pre-K: This
option, generally located
in elementary schools,
receives funding from both
the California Department
of Education as well as
the federal government
to provide a six-hour
(school-day) Pre-K class
during the academic year.
These are designed to
ensure all children have
access to high-quality
education and grade-level
proficiency. Children must
be four years old on or
before September 1st of
the academic year to be
eligible.
Out-of-School Time
Programs (OST): The EES
work collaboratively with
elementary schools to
build on children’s learning
and development to make
the time between school
and home life engaging,
fun and productive in
a safe and high-quality

for children in transitional
kindergarten through 5th
grade. Students find the
ideal balance between
academics, outdoor
recreation, enrichment
activities and field trips,
while receiving individualized homework support
from an experienced staff.
OST provides busing
between some of SFUSD’s
elementary schools and
early education schools.
Please address subsidized
and tuition-based enrollment questions directly
to the OST school you are
interested in attending.
COSTS & FEES
SFUSD provides both
a tuition-based and
subsidized Pre-K options.
Qualifying families may
take advantage of a sliding
scale, subsidized tuition
based on family income.
Additionally, families may
seek subsidies if parents or
guardians are:
• employed or seeking
employment
• attending school
• medically incapacitated
• participating in CalWorks
through Social Services
• seeking permanent
housing
• receiving Child Protective Services
Tuition-based enrollment
slots are available on a first
come first serve basis at
$1,100 per month. Each
school will invoice families
on a monthly basis, and all
fees are to be paid directly
to your child’s school.
Please contact the EED Enrollment Office to inquire
about your child’s eligibility for tuition or subsidized
fees prior to applying. For
more information, call
(415) 750-8500.
PRE-K APPLICATION &
ENROLLMENT PROCESS
To be eligible for Preschool
(Pre-K), children must
turn three years old on
or before September 1st
of the year they enroll.
Please look carefully at the
age requirements of the
schools you wish to apply
for, as some only serve
4 year olds. For these
schools, children must
turn four on or before
September 1st of the year
they enroll. Currently,
there are fewer available
slots for Pre-K than there
are families interested in
enrolling. Although we
will do our very best to
accommodate your child,
completing an application does not guarantee
enrollment.
PLACEMENT
As part of the preschool
application process,
students and their families
may choose among
our 12 early education
schools (EES) or among
our 23 elementary schools
(ES)—each of whom have
accredited preschool
classrooms taught by
credentialed teachers.
The EES are dedicated to
preschool, and in some
cases, transitional kindergarten, while our 23 ES
offer preschool but allow
students the possibility of
staying in the same school
through 5th grade.

The placement policy aims for every
student’s top choice, and we believe
in meeting as many top choices
as possible for all San Francisco
families. Students entering Kindergarten have an opportunity to apply
for any SFUSD school. Students in
non-transitional grades (grades 1-4)
may also apply to transfer or for
placement into a different school.
We encourage families to tour and
talk to staff at schools and at the
Educational Placement Center so
that they may identify choices of
schools that may best meet their
child’s needs. (See Transfer section
on page 129)
Submit your enrollment application

DISCOVER ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS
A. Elementary Attendance Area Schools
* Attendance areas are geographic borders drawn around most elementary schools
throughout the district. There are no attendance areas for middle or high schools.
We created attendance areas so there can be a system of helping you get placement in your elementary attendance area school if you wish. You are not required
to request your elementary attendance area school, nor can you be guaranteed a
placement at your elementary attendance area school.

9th Grade Lowell
Application Process
Lowell High School is the only
high school with academic and
merit-based admissions criteria. For
complete information, please see
the Lowell application form and the
Lowell Admissions Policy document
that is also posted on the SFUSD
website.
Applicants to Lowell must reside in
San Francisco with the parent at the
time of application and continue to
live in San Francisco while attending
Lowell. Interdistrict permits are not
allowed for admission to Lowell. Any
application with falsified information
will nullify any application or result
in a canceled assignment.
Current SFUSD 8th grade students
do not need to submit additional
documents for proof of address
unless the student’s address has
been recently changed. Non-SFUSD
students must submit a picture
ID of parent or guardian, proof of
birthdate, and two proofs of address
as indicated on page 10, when
submitting the applications. Seventh
and 8th grade report card grades
and Lowell Admission test results
will be used for admissions criteria.
The Lowell Admissions Test will be
administered at Lowell on January 6,
7, 8 and 11, 2016. Applicants will be
automatically assigned a test date by
last name.
Any other documentation pertaining
to extracurricular activities, extenuating circumstances, or demonstrating
ability to overcome hardship may
be included with the enrollment
applications.
Lowell Selection Process
There is no sibling priority for Lowell.
All students must meet entrance
criteria to receive an assignment
offer.
Entrance criteria for SOTA are solely
based on audition outcomes. There
is no waiting pool or appeal process
for SOTA, however students may
re-audition at the school’s discretion.
Discover
65
Schools
Enrollment into grades 10-12 are
dependent upon available capacity
at the school. Students who meet
eligibility requirements for admission
will be sent an assignment offer to
Lowell no later than July 22. There is
no waiting pool for admission.
Placement
Placement
Policy
Current SFUSD students need not
submit transcripts. Applicants who
are not currently attending a San
Francisco public school or who are
attending a SFUSD Charter School
are responsible for requesting their
official transcripts from their current schools for submission to the
Educational Placement Center by July
1st, 2016. Transcripts do not need to
be included with the application, but
may be submitted separately by the
July 1st deadline. Transcripts must
arrive sealed to be considered official
and may be mailed directly from the
applicant’s current school.
Ruth Asawa San Francisco School of
the Arts (SOTA) applicants must turn
in both the SOTA application and
a general SFUSD application, and
schedule an audition to take place
in January or March by contacting
the school at 415-695-5700. SOTA
applicants must turn in a SOTA
application to SOTA by Dec. 4, 2015
to participate in the first audition
(January 09, 2016) and the first
placement round, or by Feb. 12, 2016,
to participate in the second audition
(March 5, 2016) and second placement round. Applicants must also
turn in the general SFUSD application
by January 15, 2016. SOTA should
be listed on the general application
in the correct order of preference. All
applications for SOTA are reviewed
and students who have qualified for
SOTA through the audition process
are identified prior to the general
assignment run for the first placement run. Qualifying students who
list SOTA as the first choice school will
receive an assignment offer to SOTA.
Those who qualify but list another
school as a higher choice than SOTA
will go into the assignment run.
If they receive a placement into a
higher choice school, they will not
receive an offer to SOTA but to the
higher choice school instead. Therefore, it is important to list choices of
schools by preference. Students who
do not qualify for SOTA will not be
negatively impacted (it will be as if
the school was not listed as a choice
school) and will be included in the
assignment process for all the other
choices listed on their applications.
Enroll
Admission to Lowell
and Ruth Asawa SOTA is
limited to students who
reside in San Francisco
only. Residents who
subsequently move out
of district will not be
allowed an interdistrict
permit to continue.
To qualify for Lowell admission, the
applicant must take four of the five
academic subjects for each semester
of high school – English, Laboratory
Sciences, Social Studies, Mathematics
and Foreign Language as reflected
in an official transcript. No more
than one course from each of the
five academic subject areas will be
considered. Courses completed in
summer school are not acceptable.
SOTA Applications
Apply
All students are reviewed and
identified for Lowell admissions in
Round 1 and assignment offers will
be mailed out by March 11, 2016.
There is no waiting pool or appeal
process for Lowell.
The Lowell application process for
grades 10-12 for the 2016-2017
school year begins on May 2, 2016.
Applications will be available at that
time at the Educational Placement
Center, at all SFUSD high schools, or
on the district’s website. The application must be submitted in person
by the parent or legal guardian
between May 2 and June 17, 2016.
Applications submitted after the June
deadline or those received by mail or

first placement round. Qualifying
students who list Lowell as the
first choice school will receive an
assignment offer to Lowell. Those
who qualify but list another school
as a higher choice than Lowell will
go into the assignment run. If they
receive a placement into a higher
choice school, they will not receive
an offer to Lowell but to the higher
choice school instead. Therefore, it
is important to list your choices of
schools by preference. Students who
do not qualify for Lowell will not be
negatively impacted (it will be as if
the school was not listed as a choice
school) and will be included in the
assignment process for all the other
choices listed on their applications.

of high interest academic and handson experiential learning, backed by
high expectations and teacher support.
In addition to a rigorous core curriculum that includes Language Arts/
literacy, Mathematics, Sciences, history/
social Sciences, world languages, and
visual/performing arts, Downtown High
programs prepare students for the real
world, building essential life skills. Even
students who have not been successful
at traditional high schools find success and self-motivation in our rich
academic setting. Mandatory parent
conferences twice a semester ensure
that academic and social information is
passed between parents/guardians and
teachers, bridging communication with
families in a supportive manner. Service
learning is also an essential element of
the Downtown High School experience.
Many students work and volunteer in
the community as part of their selected
projects. The world is immense and
Downtown High is focused on bridging
real world wisdom through exposure
of multiple academic subjects coupled
with experiential learning.

with peers and positive
older role models. Over
the last several years, the
afterschool program options in San Francisco have
expanded, and there are
many differences among
them, including location
(schools, community
centers, nonprofit organizations, playgrounds, and
recreation centers); focus,
(tutoring and homework
help, outdoor activities,
arts, etc.); and other
factors, including ages
served, hours of operation,
enrollment policies, cost
to participants, and other
characteristics.
Two programs are sponsored by SFUSD: a) Early
Education Department
- SFUSD Out-of-School
Time (OST) Program,
and b) SFUSD ExCEL
(Expanded Collaboratives
for Excellence in Learning)
Programs. The ExCEL
programs are funded
through State and Federal
Grants and therefore are
not at every school and
have limited capacity
at the funded schools.
SFUSD’s vision for its
afterschool programs is to
bolster school-day success
and support families by
creating high-quality,
safe, youth-centered,
and culturally responsive
learning experiences that
expand social-emotional,
physical, and cognitive development of all students.
Both the EED and ExCEL
programs offer programming that is equally
composed of Academic
support, recreation, and
Enrichment. The table
below outlines how the
district’s two afterschool
options differ. Students in
K to 5th grade can pick up
a central application form
at the district’s Educational
Placement Center, or EED

Who Receives Special
Education Services? What
Is An Individual Education
Program (IEP)?
Children identified with a disability
that adversely affects their education
may be determined as eligible for
special education services through
an Individual Education Program
(IEP). This educational plan is
developed by a team that includes:
parents/guardians, teachers, administrators, and other special education
service providers. An IEP may include
special education instruction, related
services, the use of supplementary
aids and services, curriculum accommodations and modifications and a
range of other services. If you think
that your child may require special
education services, please contact
Screening and Assessment at 415759-2222. Additional information is

What Is The Application
Process For Students With
Special Education Services?
Students with IEP’s are required to
submit an enrollment application
if one of the following scenarios
applies:
• Students new to SFUSD
• Students in transitional grades
who need a new assignment
for the next school year (Pre-K,
Transitional Kindergarten, 5th or
8th grade, and those entering into
transitional services for students
aged 18 to 22)
• Students in a non-transitional
grade who want to transfer to
another school for the following
year
• Current SFUSD students with a
recent change in special education
service delivery (i.e. a separate
class is now specified in the IEP)
The same enrollment application
form is used by all students applying
for the 2015-2016 school year.
• Consult the section of this Guide
relevant to details on the enrollment policies, process, and key
dates
Please note that any change in
special education services must be
made through the IEP team and
finalized in the IEP. The EPC cannot
process requests for changes in
service.
What Assistance Is Available
To Families For Completing
The Enrollment Process?
Special Education Counselors at
the Educational Placement Center
(EPC) are available to assist parents/
guardians of children with special
education needs with the entire
enrollment process, whether their
child is new to SFUSD or already
attending an SFUSD school. EPC
is located at 555 Franklin Street
(at McAllister) in Room 100, and is
open Monday through Friday from
8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Appointments
with a Special Education placement
counselor are recommended but are
not necessary. Call EPC at 415-3556995 to make an appointment.
What Are The Placement
Options For Students
Receiving Special Education
Services?
Unless the IEP of a student with
a disability requires some other
arrangement, the student should
be educated in the school that he/
she would attend if not disabled.
Since SFUSD placement offers are
determined through the enrollment application process, families
with children who receive special
education services should complete
the SFUSD enrollment application,
including the selection of school
preferences, within the specified
placement timelines.
Although Separate Classes are not
offered at every school, SFUSD
strives to offer these specialized
services at sites spread geographically throughout the city. The types
of Separate Class offered are based
upon the following similar education
needs:
• Mild/Moderate
• Mild/Moderate with Autism Focus
• Moderate/Severe
• Moderate/Severe for Autism
• Deafness & Hearing Impairment
• Services for Students with Emotional Disturbance
• Community Access & Transition
(for Moderate/Severe students
ages 18-22)
Students requiring Separate Class
(also known as Special Day Class)
for a majority of the instructional
day, or other specialized services
not available at every school, will
also participate in the student
assignment process for placement
into the subset of schools that can
provide the services designated
in their IEP. Again, parental choice,
school capacity, and the tie-breakers
(as detailed in this Enrollment Guide)
determine the school assignment
when there are more requests than
available capacity.

Parents/guardians should review
their child’s IEP to determine whether a Separate Class is designated to
meet their child’s needs and what
type of Separate Class is stated in
the IEP. Those unsure of the placement needs for their child should
meet with an EPC Special Education
Counselor for assistance.
The EPC Special Education team will
review, verify, and process all applications for students with IEP’s. As
part of the verification process, the
EPC counselors will make sure that
the school preferences listed on the
application form meet the applicant’s needs as described in the IEP.
Students with IEP’s will participate
in the student assignment process
in which parental choice, school
capacity, and the tie-breakers (as
detailed elsewhere in this Enrollment
Guide) play a role in determining
each student’s school assignment
when there are more requests than
available capacity.

The lists and maps, provided on
pages 96-99 of this guide, identify
the SFUSD school sites that will offer
Separate Classes in the 2015-2016
school year. This list is subject to
change due to fluctuating capacity
requirements; please review the
online EPC website prior to completing your application for the latest
information.
How Does The Placement
Process Work For Students
With Special Education
Services?
Discover
iscover
Students with special education
needs whose IEP’s determine that
the student will spend the majority of the instructional day in the
general education classroom can be
served at any school within SFUSD.
However, certain highly specialized
services for particular disabilities
with lower incidence rates are not
available at all school sites. When a
student’s IEP team has determined
that the Least Restrictive Environment (LRE) is a separate special
education classroom for 50% or
more of the school day (also known
as a Special Day Class), enrollment
options are limited to those schools
offering that particular set of
specialized services and supports.

options, please see the additional

ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION:
Families who did not receive the
assignment of their choice may
want to participate in subsequent
placement periods, such as the May
Placement period, the August Waiting Pool, or the medical and family
hardship appeals process. Those
families may submit their requests

Students with special education
needs who enter SFUSD outside

defined in this guide will be assisted

The Service Delivery Options listed
below describe the primary settings
where special education services are
delivered.
• General Education
• Related Services
• Resource Specialist Services
• Separate Class
The student assignment process
varies depending upon the services
required to meet a child’s educational needs and the amount of time
the student spends in the general
education setting. Since all options
are not available at every school,
the enrollment process for students
with special education services is
dependent upon the Service Delivery Option as determined by the IEP
team.
Related Services
Related Services are designed
to provide specific, specialized
interventions when necessary for
a student to benefit from his or
her instructional program. Related
Services are provided by a credentialed or licensed specialist in either
the general education or a separate
education setting or classroom.
Services may also be provided by a
specifically trained instructional aide
or other certificated staff under the
direction of the specialist. Related
Services can include, but are not
limited to, the following:
• Speech and Language Services
• Audiological Services
• Augmentative and Alternative
Communication
• Orientation and Mobility
• Vision Services
• Adaptive Physical Education
• Occupational Therapy
• Physical Therapy
General Education
• Assistive Technology
Students who receive special education services in a general education
classroom are provided with
appropriate accommodations and
modifications and/or supplementary
aids and supports, as designated in
their IEP. The IEP team determines
the appropriateness of placement in
general education based upon the
educational benefits available to the
student in a general education classroom, supplemented by appropriate
aids and services, as compared
with the educational benefits of a
separate class setting. This service
delivery option is available at every
K-12 school. Parents/Guardians
whose student’s Service Delivery
Option is General Education may list
any school on their application.
• Counseling and Mental Health
Services
• Vocational Education and Career
Development
Students requiring only Related
Services are assigned to the general
education classroom for the majority
of their school day. Related Services
are available at every K-12 school.
Parents/Guardians whose child
requires only Related Services may
list any school on the enrollment
application.
Resource Specialist Services
Separate classes are a more restrictive setting and provide services to students with more intensive
needs who require 51% or more
of their day in a separate special
education classroom to meaningfully
benefit from instruction. Students
are assigned to a special education
credentialed teacher and multigrade classrooms according to their
learning needs. Special education
teachers collaborate with general
education classroom teachers and
the IEP team to plan services and
provide instruction in the least
restrictive environment possible. The
primary focus of instruction is access
to the common core academic
standards accommodated and/or
modified with specialized instructional strategies to meet individual
student needs. Students who spend
the majority of the instructional day
in a Separate Class may also spend
a portion of the day in the general
education classroom, as determined
by the IEP team. Separate Classes
with specialized services are not
offered at every school. The types
and locations of Separate Classes
offered are listed on pages 96-97.
This list is subject to change due to
fluctuating capacity requirements;
please review the online EPC website

GIFTED & TALENTED EDUCATION
G
ifted and Talented
Education (GATE)
is planned and
implemented at the school
site level. The San Francisco
Unified School District is
committed to providing
learning opportunities
for all students. Elementary
and middle schools GATE
identified students are
grouped within heterogeneous classroom settings.
In high school, GATE
identified students along
with other students may
enroll in California State
University and University
104 Discover
of California (CSU/UC) approved Honors and Advanced Placement courses.
There may be prerequisites
for admission to these
classes. Check with your
child’s school site principal
to learn more about CSU/
UC Honors and AP coursework.
For the school year of
2016-17, a team of SFUSD
educators will redesign a
new system that will identify highly gifted students.
The identification process
may
include
parent/
teacher input, academic
performance and measures
of cognitive abilities. Once
a student is identified, he/
she is designated gifted
or talented throughout
her/his academic career in
SFUSD.
Differentiated instruction
and learning will continue
to serve as the foundation
for GATE services during
this transition time. The
core curriculum in each
content area is differentiated using a variety of
methods that provide ad-
ditional depth, complexity
and novelty for students
to perform to their highest
potential.
Differentiated
instruction will be offered
throughout the school day
within the heterogeneous
classroom setting.
[transportation]
The specific routes for the
2016-17 school year will
not be developed until November 2015 at the earliest.
Once the routes are developed, the Transportation
Department will send the
information to schools, it
will post the information on
their web page (www.sfusd.
edu/transportation) and it
will disseminate information via the Educational
Placement Center (555
Franklin Street).
Although the routes have
not been developed, we
anticipate providing limited
transportation services to
the following schools in
2016-17. This list of schools
is subject to decrease if
the level of state categorical resources specified for
student
transportation
services decreases.

Things to know before you complete your application
[residency]
A
minor’s residence
is presumed
to be the legal
residence of the parent(s)
or guardian(s) who have
physical custody of the
minor. In order to be
enrolled in SFUSD, the
student’s parent/legal
guardian must continually
reside in San Francisco at
the time of application and
for the entire period of
enrollment in SFUSD.
This residency policy does
not apply to homeless
students.
Definition of Residency
For the purpose of this
policy, a resident is
an individual who is a
full time occupant of a
dwelling located in San
Francisco and who, on
any given day, is likely
to be at his/her stated
address when not at work
or school. In determining
the place of residence the
following rules shall be
observed:
a. It is the place where one
remains when not called
elsewhere for labor or
other special or temporary
purpose, and to which he/
she returns in seasons of
repose.
b. There can only be one
residence.
c. A residence cannot
be lost until another is
gained.
d. The residence of the
parent/guardian with
whom an unmarried
minor child maintains
his/her place of abode
is the residence of such
unmarried minor child.
e. The residence can be
changed only by the union
of act and intent.
If the parents are
separated and live at
different addresses, the
pupil must physically
reside with the parent in
San Francisco for at least
Please see page 10 for
required documents.
Special Situations

or designee may

the Superintendent’s
discretion, the student’s
residency and retain a

offered as verification of
residency in the student’s

Revocation of Enrollment
If the Superintendent
or designee reasonably
determines in their
discretion that a student’s
enrollment and/or school
placement is based on a
false claim of residency,
address, guardianship/
caregiver, or any other
false information, the
student’s enrollment will
be revoked.
Non-Residents
If the District finds that the
student is not a resident of
San Francisco, the student
will be dropped from
enrollment in the District
and required to enroll in
school in the student’s
actual district of residence.
For one year after the
revocation, the pupil will

Policy
These documents also will
be required for any change
of address and may be
requested for transitional
students entering 6th or
9th grade.
Any child whose family
resides in San Francisco
is guaranteed access to
a free public education
in SFUSD. No family
will be denied access to
school because of their
immigration status.
In order to verify residency,
SFUSD reserves the right
to request additional
documents and/or to
conduct an investigation.
Because residency can
change for students and
their families during the
school year, SFUSD may
verify residency at any
time, or may require proof
of continued residency
at such intervals (e.g.
monthly, quarterly,
annually) as may be
deemed appropriate,
including in transitional
grades. The Director
of the Education
Placement Center is the
designee charged with
overseeing residency
fraud investigations. The
EPC Director may utilize
District staff or private
investigators to conduct
residency investigations
as the EPC Director and/
or designee deems
reasonably appropriate.

Required Documents
Undocumented Students
If the Superintendent
or designee reasonably
believes or has a
reasonable suspicion that

evidence of residency,

make reasonable efforts
to determine whether the
student meets District
residency requirements.

If the District finds that
the student is a San
Francisco resident, but
has obtained a particular

based on other false
information or moved to
San Francisco after the
District’s discovery of
their non-residency, the
student will be dropped

Residents who have had
their enrollment revoked
due to violation of this
policy shall not be eligible

placement process into an
oversubscribed school for
one year after revocation.

[siblings]
[age requirements]
Students who live at
the same address and
have the same parent/
guardian are considered
siblings.
We encourage you to list
additional schools in the
event that space is unavailable in the older sibling’s
school or program.
Younger siblings can be
assigned to their older
sibling’s school if the older
sibling will still be attending during the upcoming
school year, and if space is
available. If placement in
the older sibling’s school
is desired, we strongly
recommend that you list
the older sibling’s school
on the application form as
your first choice. If you do
not list the older sibling’s
school as the first choice,
there is a possibility that
the student will be placed
in a different school. We
also recommend that you
list other schools also in
the event there is a lack of
space in the older sibling’s
school.
Siblings who are applying for school at the
same time for different
grade levels cannot be
guaranteed placement
into the same school.
There is a possibility that
new siblings applying for
school may be assigned
to different schools based
on space availability. Some
families, in fact, choose to
have the siblings attend
different schools. There is
no way we will know you
desire to keep siblings together if different schools
are listed in a different
order of preference.
An older sibling will not
receive a priority to attend
a younger sibling’s school.
The purpose of the sibling
priority is to assist families
with multiple children
to enroll their children
in a school together, not
to provide a placement
priority into multiple
schools. Additionally, we
strive to assign younger
siblings into an older
sibling’s school as allowable by space, but may
not necessarily be able to
assign the sibling into the
same program (such as
language programs).
110 Apply
Twins, triplets and
multiples
If placement into the same
school is desired for twins,
triplets and multiples,
each application should
indicate the same school
choices in the same order.
The parent/guardian must
indicate on the enrollment
application check box that
they wish to have their
twins or multiples placed
in the same school. When
one twin is assigned to a
choice school, the student
assignment process will
seek to place the other
twin into the same school
if space is available. If
an assignment cannot
be offered to one of the
requested schools, then
the twins will be assigned
together into the school
closest to home with
openings as space allows.
If you choose ‘No’ on the
check box, then twins,
triplets or multiples will
go into the assignment
process as individual
students. In the event that
multiples are separated in
the assignment process,
a sibling tie-breaker will
be assigned to the sibling
requesting placement
into the other sibling’s
school for any subsequent
placement period.
California law now requires
that a child must be five
years old on or before
September 1, 2016 to be
legally eligible for Kindergarten and six years old
on or before September 1,
2016 to be legally eligible
for first grade.
Students who will have
their fifth birthday between
September 2 and December
2, 2016 are eligible for a
Transitional Kindergarten
program for the 2016-2017
school year. Transitional
Kindergarten is the first
year of a two-year kindergarten program that uses
a modified kindergarten
curriculum that is age and
developmentally appropriate.
Note: If you sign and
submit the enrollment
application, and your child
meets the age eligibility
for Transitional Kindergarten, your child will be
enrolled in a Transitional K
program for the 2016-17
school year and will be
required to apply for a
Kindergarten assignment
for the 2017-18 school
year by submitting an
application available in
October 2016.

that the student may have English
language acquisition challenges. If
the student does not score a 4 or 5 on
the CELDT, he/she will be classified as
an English Learner.

was below 3 in either the listening or speaking section.
•
At grades two and above, your child did not receive an overall score of
4 or 5 on the California English Language Development Test (CELDT)
or received an overall score of 4 or 5, but had one or more sub-scores

To graduate from high school, students
are required to complete two years
(20 credits) of a World Language, or
demonstrate proficiency in a World
Language. World Language credits
may only be earned in grades 7-12*.
Proficiency, on the other hand, may
be demonstrated, such that the full 20
credits are not needed, and students
may graduate with 0 World Language
credits. Students who can demonstrate
proficiency in a language other than
English that is equal to or exceeding what
is expected of students after two years of
high school World Language study may
be able to satisfy the World Language
requirement for graduation without
credits.
Satisfaction of both UC/CSU LOTE
(Language Other Than English) admission
requirements and SFUSD graduation
requirements, may be demonstrated as
follows:
a.
e. In

4. ENGLISH PLUS PATHWAY
The English Plus Pathway is designed
to ensure English Learners develop
English language proficiency and
academic competency.
The English Plus Pathway is designed
for (1) English Learners from low
incidence languages where it is not
feasible for the district to offer a
language pathway; and (2) English
Learners whose parents wish for their
children to be in an intensive English
instruction program.
5. NEWCOMER PATHWAY
(Chinese, Spanish, and All
Languages)
The Newcomer Pathway is designed
to help recently arrived immigrant
English Learner students adjust to
their new language and culture. At
the elementary level, it is a one-year
program (with the possibility of a
second year as needed). At middle
and high school, students may stay in
the Newcomer Pathway for multiple
years as needed. In addition to
academic support, Newcomers have
access to resources and referrals to
student support services, i.e. physical
and mental health, housing, and legal
services.
The Newcomer Pathway serves
recently arrived immigrant English
Learner students who need a period
of adjustment and orientation before
entering a language pathway or
English Plus Pathway.
All Pathways share the following
principles or elements:
• Minimum
30
Minutes
of
Designated English Language
Development (ELD) Instruction
in addition to Integrated ELD
during Content Instruction. The
district will provide all English
Learners with at least 30 minutes
of Designated ELD instruction per
day that is appropriate to the setting
and identified needs of the students
until they are re-designated as Fluent
English Proficient. The amount
of ELD will vary and may exceed
30 minutes based on a student’s
level of proficiency. In addition to
Designated ELD, ELD standards will
also be addressed during content
areas, e.g. English Language Arts,
Social Studies, Math and Science,
based on the new California ELD
Standard.
• Primary
Language
and/or
Integrated ELD and Specially
Designed Academic Instruction in
English (“SDAIE”) Methodologies.
The district will provide English
Learners with content classes taught
in the primary language and/or
using Integrated ELD and SDAIE
methodologies which are strategies
designed to help English Learners to
be fully engaged learners of content
in all academic areas. The California
ELD Standards will also be used in
tandem with all academic content
standards.
• Avoid Linguistic Isolation. In the
development
and
maintenance
of pathways, the district will strive
to avoid linguistic isolation by
incorporating
opportunities
for
English Learners to interact with
native English speakers.
• Teachers with the Appropriate
EL Certification Based on State
Requirements. All English Learner
classes will be taught by teachers
with the appropriate EL certification
based on state requirements, i.e.
CLAD or BCLAD certification.
For more information on the English
Learner Pathways and Miltilingual
Education Pathways please refer to
the English Learner Program Guide.
RECLASSIFICATION PROCESS
Reclassification is the process whereby
an English Learner is reclassified as
a Fluent English Proficient (RFEP)
student after meeting various
linguistic and academic criteria set by
the state and district.
The San Francisco Unified School
District has developed student
reclassification policy and procedures
based on criteria set forth by
California Department of Education
guidelines.
Students
initially
identified as English Learners (ELs)
are reclassified as Fluent English
Proficient (RFEP) when they meet the
following standard criteria. Detailed
reclassification information by grade
level is available at http://www.sfusd.
edu/en/programs-and-ser vices/
english-learners-and-languagepathways/reclassification.
Multilingual Pathways Department
(MPD) distributes a list of ELs to
each site on a regular basis. The list
provides teachers and administrators
with the necessary test information
to
initiate
the
reclassification
process. In addition, MPD distributes
a list specifically of students who
potentially qualify for reclassification.
It is the responsibility of the school
site to initiate the reclassification
process. After a student is reclassified,
his/her academic progress must be
monitored for two years
If deemed appropriate by the IEP
Team, English Learners who are
receiving special education services
may be assessed with the “VCCALPS”
as an alternate assessment to
the CELDT to determine English
proficiency levels. If the school’s
language appraisal team determines
that an EL with an IEP would benefit
from EL reclassification, but the
student’s disability prevents him/
her from meeting the above criteria,

as “attending classes and
participating fully in
school activities.”
• The school must refer the
student, parent, or guardian to
the District Liaison to carry out
the dispute resolution process
as expeditiously as possible. The
Homeless Liaison must ensure
that the dispute resolution
process is also followed for
unaccompanied youths.
• A written explanation of the
school’s decision regarding
school selection or enrollment
must be provided to the parent,
guardian, or unaccompanied
youth.
• If the dispute remains unresolved

homeless?
• Children and Youth Living in
Shelters, Single Room Occupancy
(SRO), Transitional Housing,
the Streets, Cars, Abandoned
Buildings, and Other Inadequate
Accommodations are considered
homeless.
• Children and Youth Living in
Trailer Parks and Camping
Grounds: Children living
temporarily in trailer parks or
camping areas because they
lack adequate accommodations
are considered homeless. But,
if they are living there on a
longterm basis in adequate
accommodations they are not
deemed homeless.
• Doubled up Children and Youth:
Children living in housing that
their family shares with other
families or individuals are
considered homeless if they
are doubled-up due to a loss
of housing. But families who
•
are voluntarily doubled-up to
save money generally are not
considered homeless.
Foster Children and Youth: In
general, children in foster homes
are not considered homeless. But
children placed in foster homes
because of their parents’ lack of
shelter are deemed homeless.
Also, children living in an
emergency shelter or transitional
living facility because there is
nowhere else to send them while
they are awaiting placement
in a foster home or home for
neglected children are considered
homeless – until the placement is
made.
Hospitalized Children and Youth:
Children who are ready for
discharge but remain hospitalized
because their families have
abandoned them are considered
homeless. Children who were
homeless prior to hospitalization
are considered homeless while in
the hospital unless regular and
adequate accommodations will
be made available to them upon
discharge.
Incarcerated Children and Youth:
Children who are under the care
of the State and are held in an
institution because they have no
other place to live are considered
homeless.
Migratory Children and Youth:
Children of migrant workers are
considered homeless only to the
extent that they are staying in
accommodations not fit
for habitation.
Runaways: Children who have
run away from home and live in
runaway shelters, on the streets,
in abandoned buildings, or other
“inadequate accommodations”
even if their parents have and are

IN & OUT OF SAN FRANCISCO
If
you are a resident of San
Francisco and wish for your
child to attend a public
school outside of San Francisco, you
must submit an interdistrict permit
to the EPC. T he parent/guardian
should bring a current verification
of the San Francisco home address. Beginning in January, permits
are processed and approved or
disapproved on a weekly basis and
forwarded to the requested district. Final approval is made by the
requested district.
If your student wishes to attend a
San Francisco public school and
you do not live in San Francisco,
you must obtain an interdistrict
permit from your current public
school district of residence. The
interdistrict transfer agreement
permit is required for anyone living
outside of San Francisco who wishes
to attend or continue attending a
124 Apply
San Francisco public school. It is an
annual permit and must be on file
for each school year. Interdistrict
transfer request students cannot be
guaranteed enrollment in SFUSD.
Interdistrict attendance permits may
be approved for any of the following
reasons:
• To meet the child care needs of
the student.
• The parent/guardian is employed
within the city of San Francisco.
• When the student has a sibling
attending school in the receiving district, to avoid splitting the
family’s attendance.
• To allow the student to complete
a school year when his/her parents/guardians have moved out
of the district during the year.
• When there is a valid interest in
a particular educational program
not offered in the district of residence.
• A pupil who has been determined
by personnel of either the district
of residence or the district of proposed enrollment to have been
the victim of an act of bullying,
as defined in subdivision (r) of
Section 48900, committed by a
pupil of the district of residence
shall, at the request of the person
having legal custody of the pupil,
be given priority for interdistrict
attendance under any existing
interdistrict attendance agreement or, in the absence of an
agreement, be given additional
consideration for the creation of
an interdistrict attendance agreement.
We review requests five weeks before the start of the new school year
(not earlier). First we need to make
school placement offers to students
from the city of San Francisco. We
recommend that students who do
not reside in San Francisco enroll
in their district of residence in the
event that SFUSD is unable to assign
the child to a requested school.
We can grant interdistrict transfers
only on a space-available basis, and
we reserve the right to determine
whether or not to accept interdistrict
transfer requests. We also reserve
the right to limit the number of
incoming students and establish
priorities according to types of
requests.
We cannot grant interdistrict
transfers if the cost of educating the
student would exceed the amount of
state aid received as a result of the
transfer.
Also, we cannot grant interdistrict
transfers to high demand schools,
i.e., schools that are filled to capacity
at the end of the first placement
period.
Interdistrict Permits are not allowed
for Lowell High School and Ruth
Asawa School of the Arts.
To apply for an interdistrict permit to
attend SFUSD, you must first apply
in your own district of residence.
Each school district has individual
timelines and requirements for
interdistrict applications. If and when
the permit is approved by the district
of residence, it will be forwarded to
the EPC for approval. EPC will notify
the parent/guardian by mail if any
additional documentation, such as
employment verification, is needed.
A SFUSD enrollment application,
reflecting the out-of-district address,
must also be submitted along with
all other required documents for
enrollment.
Interdistrict transfer students will
not be assigned through the regular
student assignment process, but
will be held until mid-summer when
interdistrict placement begins.
Placement is made in the order that
the applications are received.
Permits for students receiving
special education services must be
approved by the Special Education
Local Plan Area (SELPA) Director
or the Assistant Superintendent of
Special Education Services, prior to
placement.
If you receive an interdistrict permit,
you must renew it each school year.
The approval of the interdistrict
permit is contingent on a student
maintaining satisfactory standards
of academic progress, behavior, and
attendance. Based on these criteria,
principals annually recommend approval and/or denial of interdistrict
permits.

[placement periods]
A
placement
period is a round
of assignment
processing, which you
can request. You must
submit an application to
participate in any of the
placement periods. Forms
are available at the Educational Placement Center
or on the district website.
A placement offer is an
assignment to a particular
school. After we process
applications, we will
make a placement offer
according to the key dates
in the enrollment cycle. (If
you applied by January 15,
2016, your placement offer
will be available on March
11, 2015).
After the initial offer, you
have the opportunity to
participate in any of the
placement periods to
receive a higher choice
school.
After the initial placement
offer, we recommend that
you register to secure
enrollment at the school
site. Even if you accept
a placement offer, you
can still choose to seek
a higher choice school
during any placement or
waiting pool period.
In order to secure enrollment, you must go to the
school and register by
bringing your placement
letter and proofs of birth
and residency by the
deadline date stated on
the letter.

approved, it is sent to the
Center for assignment into
a school that can meet the

has space available. We
need to consider a school’s
capacity when placing
students whose appeal has

need to provide all of the
following information:
• A completed and
signed “Medical and
Family Hardship Appeals”
application form
• A completed and
signed “Medical
Provider’s Verification

documentation by a

if an opening occurs in a
higher requested school.
This minimizes disruptions
and movement throughout the school year.
The assignment process
will be completed at
the end of August or
early September. After the
enrollment process is completed, no further transfers
are allowed, but families
may submit a request for a
spring semester transfer.
Currently enrolled SFUSD
students may submit a
“transfer request” to seek
spring semester enrollment in a higher preferred
school that has vacancies
that have opened up
during the fall semester.
These requests may be
submitted from September
1 through November 18,
2016, for any openings
that exist at the end of fall
semester.
After August, if a school
has pending transfer
requests, any available
openings that occur in
that school during the
fall semester will be held
open until the end of
the semester when an
assignment run will be
conducted using the
tiebreaker process.
New enrollees into SFUSD
will be offered enrollment
into schools that do not
have pending requests
for transfers. They will
not be offered any school
openings where there are
transfer requests unless
they are a younger sibling
of an enrolled student in
the school and there are
no other siblings in the
transfer pool. If there are
other siblings with transfer
requests, then the placement cannot be offered.
New students who are
enrolled may submit a
transfer request within
the same time frame as all
other students.
The transfer run will be
conducted and completed
prior to the spring semester (winter break) for
active SFUSD students. No
further transfers will be
allowed after that point.
Note: The “transfer
process” is only offered to
enrolled SFUSD students.
Students who withdraw
from SFUSD cannot
participate in the transfer
process.
Any families who have a
transfer request that could
not be granted should

Doe’s 1st ranked choice school. If John Doe
gives up his assignment at Drew to Jane
feeder (incoming 6th graders), as long as
there are openings. If their attendance area
school or middle school feeder does not
have any openings, they will be offered an
assignment to the school that is closest to
where they live that has an opening.

The system will first try to designate
students who do not receive an assignment
to any of their choice schools through the
process to their attendance area school
(elementary students) or middle school
Once a student receives his highestranked choice school, when no more trade
ups can be made to help him or her get the
highest possible choice, the process ends
for that student.
This process continues until all seats
have been filled by choice requests and
no other swaps can be made to improve
outcomes for students.

❸ Designations
Smith in exchange for an assignment to
McCoppin, then both students will be able to
receive a higher-ranked choice school. The
software identifies and makes exchanges like
this during the transfer cycle. In this process,
the choice ranking is the only determinant.
Tiebreakers are not used. Only those with a
choice assignment through the tentative
assignment process will be entered into
the transfer process.

Students who will turn 5 between September 2 and December 2, 2016 are eligible
to apply for the Transition Kindergarten (TK) program. See page 111 for more
information.
Students who are eligible and are requesting Transitional Kindergarten will be assigned
to their highest ranked request as long as there is space at the school. If there are
more students applying than there are openings at a school, choice assignments will
be made by looking to all the possible combinations of tie-breakers in the following
hierarchical order.
1. Presently enrolled in a SFUSD Early Education School offering TK. Students who
have been enrolled in a pre-K program in the 2015-16 school year where TK will be
offered in 2016-17 will receive this tiebreaker for their current school.
2. Has a younger sibling enrolled in a SFUSD pre-K program or an older sibling
enrolled at the elementary school and are requesting placement at the same site. In
an effort to support families with siblings, the TK student will have a tiebreaker for
the site where a younger sibling is already attending a pre-K program. Siblings are
defined as students with the same parent/guardian and living at the same address.

Assignments are made to a requested school by looking to all the possible
combinations of tie-breakers in hierarchical order. For example, a request with
sibling, SFUSD preK, and low test score area tie-breakers will be ranked higher than
a request with only a sibling tie-breaker. Higher ranked tie-breakers always trump
any combination of lower ranked tie-breakers. For example, a request with a sibling
tie-breaker is ranked higher than a request with a SFUSD preK and low test score area
tie-breaker.

WHAT
HAPPENS IF I
DON’T RECEIVE
A REQUESTED
SCHOOL?
If you do not get an offer
to one of your school
requests because there
were more requests than
openings, SFUSD will use
the following guidelines to
offer you a school.
If you are currently
enrolled in an SFUSD
school that offers your
requested grade, you
will receive an offer to
continue at your current
school.
If you are applying to
grades K through 5 and
the grade you requested
is not available at your
current school, or you are
new to SFUSD, you will
receive an offer to your
attendance area school if
it has space. Otherwise
you will receive an offer to
the school closest to your
home with openings.
6th grade and you are
currently enrolled in an
SFUSD K5 school, you will
receive an offer to your
feeder middle school if
it has space. Otherwise
you will receive an offer to
the school closest to your
home with openings.
If you are applying to 6th
grade and you are new
to SFUSD, you will receive
an offer to the school
closest to your home with
openings.
grades 7 through 12 and
the grade you requested
is not available at your
current school, or you are
new to SFUSD, you will
receive an offer to the
school closest to your
home with openings. If
you are not enrolled in
an SFUSD school and you
only requested Lowell
and/or SOTA but you did
not get assigned to Lowell
or SOTA, you will need to
contact EPC to request
other SFUSD high schools.
Apply
Discover
If you requested a
language or newcomer
pathway and the school
you will be offered has an
opening in a requested
pathway, you will receive
an offer to the language
or newcomer pathway
in this school. If this
school has openings in
more than one requested
pathway, you will receive
an offer to the pathway
you ranked highest on
your application form. For
example, if you requested
a Spanish Immersion
pathway as a first choice
and a Spanish Biliteracy
pathway as a second
choice, and the school in
question has openings
in both pathways, you
will receive an offer to
the Spanish Immersion
pathway since you ranked
it higher. If this school
does not have an opening
in any requested language
or newcomer pathway,
you will receive an offer
to the general education
program at this school.
