PWT is a Court-Ordered voluntary integration program available to residents of the
Los Angeles Unified School District who live within a PWT sending school area.
Parents
may call (213) 241-6572 to verify if the applicant lives in a PWT sending area.
The PWT program provides students with integrated experiences by placing Hispanic, Black, Asian and Other Non-Anglo students in integrated school settings while providing
opportunities for Other White (OW) students to attend Predominantly Hispanic, Black,
Asian and Other Non-Anglo (PHBAO) schools. School assignments and availability are
the responsibility of the District.
Provided that space continues to be available, PWT students may continue from elementary
to middle to high school without reapplying. Also, when space is available, the
PWT program will assign siblings to the same school if an application is submitted
and the brother or sister is still enrolled. PWT students are enrolled in the regular
school program and may take part in all
programs and activities available to resident students. Parents are encouraged to
participate in all school/community activities with transportation provided within
Integration guidelines.
PWT is administered by the Office of Student Integration Services. Please contact
the office at its toll-free number (877) 4MAG/PWT (877) 462-4798, or (213) 241-4I77
or (213) 241-6572.
