Parents may request their children be placed on a school(s) waiting list if they are Berkeley residents and their students are actively enrolled in a BUSD school. The waiting list(s) will conform to the student assignment policy. Students who are not on a waiting list may be assigned before we offer spots to students on a waiting list. This criteria includes our commitment to student diversity, ensuring sibling priority, maintaining class size and where in limited cases, the exercise of administrative discretion is required.
