What impacts my child getting a spot at Monterey Highlands?
Placement is subject to space availability.

How can I register my child in Monterey Highlands if it is not our home school?
Permits and releases must be processed before completing registration. All permits must be submitted through the AUSD website.

Classroom placement requests are not accepted and will not be honored.
