New Student Enrollment
Welcome to the Pleasanton Unified School District! We are excited about your child's entry into our school district! During COVID-19 and the Shelter-In-Place orders, new student's enrollment will be processed via email. The 2020-21 school year is currently calendared to begin on Tuesday, August 11, 2020. All grade levels will begin with remote, distance learning.
Enrollment is for students who are new to the school district. Enrollment occurs throughout the school year when a student is going to begin attending a Pleasanton Unified School District school. Students will be enrolled in the district once and registered each year.
RESIDENCE SCHOOLS
Students are enrolled in a school based on their address. The PUSD School Locator will indicate the resident schools (elementary, middle and high) for Pleasanton addresses. Due to increased and growing enrollment at certain school sites for specific grade levels, some families may be assigned to a school other than their school of residence. Therefore, please make every effort to complete your enrollment process early. If your child is overflowed to another school in the District, staff will keep your child on a waitlist and call you during the school year if space becomes available.
Also, please know that the Pleasanton Unified School District does not provide transportation (school buses). Transportation to and from school is the responsibility of each family. There is public transportation available through the Tri-Valley Rapid, Wheels Bus. Please visit the Wheels Bus website for more information regarding routes. In addition to transportation by individual car, families are also encouraged to have their child walk to and from school, ride a bike and/or a scooter.
