Please let us know if you're leaving SFUSD
If you do not intend for your student to attend SFUSD next year, please DECLINE your assignment as soon as possible. That ensures that we're able to offer your student's seat to a different family that's hoping for it!
How to Decline Your Main Round Assignment
The deadline to ACCEPT a Main Round school assignment has passed.
If you did not accept your assignment and you were not automatically enrolled (as stated in your assignment letter), you no longer have a school for next school year 2024-2025. Please contact the Enrollment Center for help.
Families can still DECLINE their school assignment up until the first day of school (August 19, 2024). If you know your student will not be attending SFUSD next year, it is important that you decline their assignment — that helps SFUSD and other families who are still trying to get into schools.
