How to Enroll

Enrollment at Peralta Elementary is managed through the Oakland Unified School District (OUSD). OUSD enrollment information and the application can be found here. The on-time application window for the 2025-2026 school year opens on December 4, 2024 and runs through February 2025, and offers will be sent to families in March 2025. Families are encouraged to apply during the OUSD on-time application window.

Each year, Peralta's 63rd Street campus welcomes 1 new class for TK, 2 new classes of kindergarteners, and new students in grades 1-5, as space allows.

Our info sessions and tours for prospective 2025-26 families have concluded. Tour information for the 2026-27 school year will be posted in the fall of 2025.
