What is Open Enrollment?

​

Ninth Grade Open Enrollment is a period of time when an incoming 9th grade SUHSD student may request a high school other than their assigned home school to attend.

​

You must complete an online Open Enrollment Transfer Application to be eligible.

​

To find out which school is your home school, you may call the Sequoia Union High School District Office at 650-369-1411 ext. 22209.
