Ad Hoc Committee on Student Assignment

Ad Hoc Committee on Student Assignment

About:

The Ad Hoc Committee on Student Assignment is a subcommittee of the Board of Education. In 2021-22, the Ad Hoc Committee on Student Assignment hosted a series of public working meetings with staff to monitor SFUSD’s new zone-based student assignment policy for elementary schools that was approved by the Board in December 2020. Additional information about the process for developing a new elementary school assignment policy can be found at sfusd.edu/studentassignment. 

In September 2022, the district announced the decision to extend the implementation timeline for the new elementary student assignment policy by one year, to 2026-27. READ MORE . The Ad Hoc Committee on Student Assignment is not meeting during the 2022-23 school year.
