Friendly reminder that the School of Choice Application closes on Tuesday, January 31st. Typically, students attend the schools that serve the neighborhood attendance areas in which they live. However, EUSD does provide attendance options for parents and students in order to help meet the diverse needs and interests of students within the district. Students may apply for a School Choice Intradistrict Transfer to any school in the district. Submitting an application for School Choice does not guarantee enrollment in the desired school(s). Students who submit a school choice application by January 31, 2023, will be included in a random, unbiased lottery drawing. You will be notified by email in April 2023 regarding the results of the lottery. Questions regarding the School Choice Intradistrict Transfer process should be directed to your principal, or to Integrated Student Supports at 760-432-2247. To submit a School of Choice application visit eusd.org or click on the link provided below. https://registration.powerschool.com/family/ActionForms/Public/34916
