San Mateo-Foster City School District

Know your school choice options in California.

California has an open enrollment policy, which means your child can attend any school in the district (called intradistrict choice), including charter schools, as long as there is space. Some districts will allow your child to attend a school in a neighboring district (called interdistrict choice).

Under the federal No Child Left Behind law, students attending a Title I school designated as “in need of improvement” have the right to attend a higher performing school in the district.
