OPEN ENROLLMENT
- Open Enrollment is a request to transfer from your school of residence (a.k.a. your “neighborhood school” or your “home school”) to a Program of Choice or another school within the Sunnyvale School District.
- Open Enrollment is one of the ways the Sunnyvale School District aims to meet the diverse needs and interests of its students.
- Please note that you must complete Sunnyvale School District's registration process in order to be eligible for the Open Enrollment process.
- Open Enrollment is not necessary for students who are registered for and wish to attend their home school.
- The exception is that ALL students who wish to participate in Columbia Middle School’s University Partnership Program must go through open enrollment, even if Columbia is your neighborhood school.
Cumberland and Cherry Chase are NOT available for open enrollment
