Supported the move to neighborhood-based enrollment

San Francisco's school board voted 5-2 on October 13 to replace the citywide choice lottery with a neighborhood-based system. Every family will get a guaranteed seat at a nearby elementary school starting with the 2028-29 school year. Citywide programs such as language immersion and K-8 schools will still take applications.

Rule Changes

Voted for neighborhood schools

San Francisco's school board voted 5-2 on October 13 to replace the city's elementary school lottery with neighborhood assignments. Every family gets a seat at its neighborhood school even if it applies late, but can apply elsewhere only to citywide programs such as language immersion and K-8 schools. The Third Baptist Church of San Francisco and Black parents say the change will fall hardest on Black students.
