2020-2021 School Choice Tranfers

The Placentia-Yorba Linda Unified School District (PYLUSD) School Choice Transfer Application period for the 2020-2021 school year begins Wednesday, January 8, 2020 at 7:30 am and ends Friday, January 31, 2020 at 4:30 pm. During this time, parents of any current or incoming students who wish to attend a PYLUSD school other than his or her home school of residence for the 2020-2021 school year should fill out a School Choice Transfer Application. Initial application notifications will take place Friday, March 13, 2020.

Please note, PYLUSD school sites do not distribute nor accept School Choice Transfer Applications. In addition, once a student has been approved to their school of choice, that school becomes their designated school of attendance. This transfer will remain in effect through middle school. Current 8th graders attending a middle school on a School Choice Transfer will need to reapply if they wish to attend a PYLUSD high school other than his or her home school of residence.

A second opportunity to submit a School Choice Transfer Application will take place from May 4, 2020 to May 15, 2020; however, do not delay. Transfer approvals are subject to space availability. In any situation where the number of requests exceeds the space available, approval of transfers will be determined by a random and unbiased selection process.

Interested families may complete a School Choice Transfer Application (beginning January 8, 2020 at 7:30 am) online at www.pylusd.org/schoolchoiceapp/ or in-person at the PYLUSD Student Services office located at 1301 E Orangethorpe Ave., Placentia, CA 92870.

*Important Information Regarding Preppy K and School Choice Transfers

All PYLUSD elementary school sites will offer Preppy K starting the next school year. Therefore, the District will not accept Preppy K School Choice Transfer Applications for the 2020-2021 school year. However, if you have extenuating circumstances, please click here and complete the form. In the meantime, please be sure to register at your student’s home school. All requests are subject to space availability at the requested site. Please keep in mind that, even if your request is granted based on extenuating circumstances, you must still submit a choice transfer form next year for your student to continue attending that site. For questions regarding Preppy K students, please contact the PYLUSD Educational Services Department at (714) 985-8785.
