*Intradistrict Transfers are required when a student transfers from one school WITHIN the Santa Barbara Unified School District’s boundaries to another school WITHIN the district’s boundaries
The Santa Barbara Unified School District’s Board of Education values the concept of neighborhood schools but permits open enrollment within the district as resources are available. In order to transfer from one school to another (both schools located within the district’s boundaries), parents must follow specific procedures for the selection and transfer of students among district schools in accordance with law, board policy, and administrative regulation.
For those families requesting their child be transferred to another school, you will be required to submit a 2021-2022 Intradistrict Transfer Application. Applications may be obtained at the District Office, school of residence, or by clicking on the link at the top of this page.
- Transfer Application Window: Tuesday, December 1, 2020 through Friday, January 29, 2021
- Late transfer applications will not be processed until after August 1, 2021.
- No transfer applications will be accepted after August 1, 2021.
- High school students planning on applying to an Academy or other Program of Choice not in their designated school of residence must submit an Intradistrict Transfer Application by January 29, 2021 in order to be considered for enrollment. If a student is not accepted into their program of choice, a parent/guardian may cancel the transfer so that a student may return to their school of residence.
