ENROLLMENT

Thank you for your interest in Short Avenue Elementary School. We are an LAUSD UTK-5th grade elementary school. We are an International Baccalaureate World School.

Non-Resident Applicants Needing a Permit

Unfortunately, our tours have all reached full capacity. Due to the limited number of permits that we will be able to offer, we are unable to schedule any additional tours for any TK or K families needing a permit. 

*We anticipate some limited openings in grades 1-5.  Please reach out to Avril Lipsky (avril.lipsky@lausd.net) if you are interested in any of these grade levels.
