High School Specialty Program Application

The High School Specialty Program Application period is now closed. Any application received after 5:00 pm on Thursday, December 20, 2018 cannot be processed.

What happens now?

All specialty program applications are reviewed. Applications eligible for a program will move to the Open Enrollment process and lottery system.

We apologize for the delay, but notification letters and registration dates for applicants has been delayed due to the high volume of applicants we received this year.

The Enrollment Center will be tentatively mailing out notification letters by February 25, 2019. Please keep looking at the website for additional updates.

If accepted into a specialty program, you must complete the process by registering at the Enrollment Center.  Dates for registration will be listed in the notification letters and announced here on our website as soon as possible. 

If you fail to complete the registration within this timeline, your student will be automatically dropped from the specialty program acceptance list.

Out-of-district applicants will not be considered for admittance until our permit window opens April 1, 2019 – May 17, 2019.  Out-of-district applicants who meet the program requirements will be accepted or go on the waiting list after qualified in-district applicants per California Education Code. 

Please refer to our Frequently Asked Questions for specific circumstances. Thank you.
