• Complete online enrollment for your student at your school of residence starting February 2, 2026.
• Decisions on transfers will not be made until students are enrolled at their school of residence.

Middle School and High School Transfers

Results usually are emailed by July but could be as late as August.

Elementary School Transfers

PUSD would like to give every opportunity for new resident students enrolling within PUSD to have a seat available at their school of residence. Since class sizes are limited at the elementary level, this means we must hold transfer requests to allow ample time for resident students to enroll. Please be guided by the following:

• Applications that meet Board compelling reasons (see Board Policy 5116.1) may be notified by email just prior to the start of the school year in August.
• Transfer requests are accepted for grades TK-5. Preschool students must contact the Preschool program at the school you want to attend for enrollment or visit the Preschool webpage for details.
• Lack of space in Extended Student Services (ESS), the before-and after-school program, at the school of residence is not a compelling reason to request a transfer. Please visit the ESS webpage for more information about the program.

Yes, while waiting for your Intradistrict Transfer request decision, you must enroll at your school of residence.

• For continuing students, please complete Online Continuing Registration (OLR) for your child and choose your School of Residence, pending a decision on your Intradistrict transfer request.
• Students currently enrolled in PUSD who are moving from elementary to middle or middle to high school must select classes at their school of residence pending the results of the transfer request.
• Those students going into middle or high school will need to complete the course selection requests for their school of residence. If your transfer request is approved, you will need to contact the approved school to complete a new course selection request for the approved school.
• Those students who want to try out for clubs, band, cheerleading, dance, or other teams may do so at their school of residence pending the results of the transfer request.

No, the parent will need to apply for a transfer for the sibling(s) during the Intradistrict Transfer window beginning February 1, 2026. Priority is given to keep siblings together, however, it is not guaranteed.

No, the parent must apply for a transfer for the student to attend any school other than the school of residence during the transfer window beginning February 1, 2026. Transfers will be considered based on space availability, PUSD Board policy, and related procedures.

Transportation is not available to students on an approved transfer.
