Permits With Transportation (PWT)
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 Student Integration Services. Please contact the office at
its toll-free number (877) 4MAG/PWT (877) 462-4798, or (213) 241-4177 or (213) 241-6572.
