Although most families attend their neighborhood school, PUSD is an Open Enrollment district so families in Pasadena, Altadena, & Sierra Madre can submit an application to attend any other school in PUSD. If you want to enroll in a Dual Language Immersion Program, Magnet school, or any school that is not your neighborhood school, you can submit an on-line application by February 26 at 4 pm. Get the facts and tour schools now! More information and timelines are here. New this year: All students entering TK for the 2025-2026 school year, must complete an Open Enrollment application even if you want to attend your neighborhood school.
