Enrolling at your Home School

 

Kindergarten registration for the 2023-24 school year begins on February 10, 2023, in Soquel Union Elementary School District (SUESD). Registration information & procedures may be obtained from your neighborhood school. Your child must turn five on or before September 1, 2023 to be eligible for Kindergarten. If you have a child who turns five between September 2, 2023 - May 24, 2024, they are eligible for our Transitional Kindergarten (TK) program. The registration process for all grades, including TK, takes place at your neighborhood school (school of residence).

Dual Language Immersion (DLI)

​For families with children entering Kindergarten, our district offers a ​DLI program (target language, Spanish) at Soquel Elementary School. Information about the program and enrollment steps can be found on our DLI website. At the time of registration, if you are interested in having your child be considered for this program, you will find a "DLI Interest" box you can check during registration. 

 

Intradistrict Transfers

Under certain circumstances, we offer the opportunity for students to attend another school in our district other than their home school. Intradistrict Transfers are governed by our district’s Board Policy 5116.1. You must first register at your home school and then apply for an Intradistrict Transfer. Requests will only be approved based on space availability at the school requested in our district. Priority will be granted to requests made specifically for the Santa Cruz Gardens Elementary Science and Gardening Education (SAGE) Program. Intradistrict Transfer Applications for the 2023-24 school year will be accepted between February 10 - April 14, 2023.

Interdistrict Transfers Into the District

Students from another district wishing to attend a school in the Soquel Union Elementary School District must complete an Interdistrict Transfer Request from their district of residence. These requests will be approved based on space available at the school requested in our district. We will begin accepting Interdistrict Transfers into the District for the 2023-24 school year on February 10, 2023.

 

Interdistrict Transfers Out of the District

Students may request a transfer out of the district to a school in another school district. In accordance with Board Policy 5117, the Superintendent or designee may limit the number of student transfers out of the district to a school district of choice based on the percentages of average daily attendance specified in Education Code 48037.

The InterDistrict Transfer Forms are now fillable on the c
omputer. Please complete ALL the sections that apply to you in detail. Print so you may sign the form then scan and email back to Jen Del Carlo at the District Office.
