SD Unified Launches Online Enrollment & Enrollment Hubs

June 5, 2026

San Diego Unified School District has launched a new online enrollment system starting with the 2026-27 school year to streamline registration for students at all grade levels. The district has expanded its previous online enrollment option, which was limited to new students at their residence school, to now include returning students, out-of-district transfers, and all transitional kindergarten enrollees. To support families during this transition, the district has established 52 Enrollment Hubs throughout the city where staff can assist parents who need help with the digital enrollment process.

Who is affected

  • Families with students enrolling in San Diego Unified School District pre-schools, elementary, middle, and high schools
  • New students enrolling at their school of residence
  • Former students returning to the district
  • All students entering Transitional Kindergarten
  • Students accepted through the Choice Program
  • Students residing out of district with approved interdistrict transfers
  • Parents of high school students (who must provide transcripts)
  • Students with Individualized Education Programs (IEPs)

What action is being taken

  • San Diego Unified School District has transitioned to a fully online enrollment process for the 2026-27 school year
  • The district is operating 52 Enrollment Hubs across the city (Monday, June 8 – Thursday, July 2, 2026, 8:30 AM – 4:00 PM)
  • Designated enrollment staff are processing applications throughout the summer
  • Families can access online enrollment 24/7 at SanDiegoUnified.org/Enroll
  • Staff at Enrollment Hubs are providing assistance and answering questions about online enrollment

Why it matters

  • This enrollment system expansion significantly improves accessibility and convenience for San Diego families by eliminating previous barriers that limited online enrollment to only new students at their residence schools. The 24/7 online access allows families to register students at their convenience rather than being constrained by office hours, while the 52 physical Enrollment Hubs ensure that families lacking digital access or technical skills still receive necessary support. By processing applications throughout the summer, the district can better prepare schools for incoming students before campuses reopen, potentially reducing first-day confusion and administrative bottlenecks.
