Intra- and Inter- District Permits

Enrollment Permits

Glendale Unified recognizes the need and provides an opportunity for parents/guardians to request a permit for their child to attend a school other than their assigned school of residence.

Permits (new and renewal) are granted on a continuous basis and depend on space availability and meeting established criteria.

Types of Permits

  • Intra-District Permit - For students who live within Glendale Unified School District boundaries and wish to attend a school other than their assigned school of residence.
  • Inter-District Permit - For students who live outside Glendale Unified attendance boundaries and wish to attend a Glendale Unified school.

Reasons for Permit Requests

Students may request an intra- or inter-district permit for several reasons including, but not limited to:

  • Sibling attendance
  • Parent/guardian employment
  • Prior attendance
  • Child care needs
  • Anticipated move
  • Enrollment in a specialized program
  • Note: students living outside Glendale Unified School District boundaries must receive a release from their district of residence in order to obtain an inter-district permit.

Revocation of Permits

Students approved for an intra- or inter-district permit must abide by all school rules and procedures. A students' permit may be revoked for several reasons, including but not limited to:

  • Unsatisfactory attendance.
  • Unsatisfactory behavior or citizenship.
  • Failure to notify school of change of residence.
