Los Angeles Unified School District has posted the schools in the district with open enrollment spaces on their site at lausd.net (go to the right hand side, and most of the way to the bottom).
Applications will be available May 7th through the 25th, with lotteries to be held soon after.
If it is any help I have a map of all schools participating in open enrollment along with lists broken down by elementary, middle and high school. Most new schools are being labeled "Learning Centers" and don't necessarily show up as elementary schools. MagnetMom is absolutely correct about existing LAUSD families needing their school site administrator's signature (most front offices keep a stack of letters pre-signed)
If the child is currently attending an LAUSD school you do need an administrator to sign off. If your child has not entered LAUSD then you do not need a signature.
You don't have to ask the school of residence sign off anything. You can just send the application to the school on open enrollment list and you can apply to many schools on the list at the same time.
My daughter's current school is also on open enrollment list with API 900+. She got in after being taken off wait list. Most of the spots are for kindergarten as far as I know of. They cut down the class size due to budget crisis, so it is very hard to get in than it used to be.78241
It's quite typical for students to apply in kinder or first grade. It's far less common that parents of fourth and fifth graders apply, but open enrollment doesn't restrict which grades they may be in.78223
With open enrollment, if you win a spot, it does not matter which grade your child is entering for that school (k-5, or 6-8 for middle, and 9-12 for high). If the school has child care permits, those they can choose which grades they have remaining spaces for.
