Social Justice Humanitas Academy is in the LAUSD North Valley Zone of Choice, which means enrollment is open to all students in the the area through the Zone of Choice application process.

What is Zone of Choice?

  •  LAUSD’s vision is that every student will receive a quality education in a safe, caring environment, and every high school graduate will be college prepared and career-ready. Zones of Choice are geographic areas comprised of multiple high school options that emerged as a strategy to increase the number of personalized educational options available to students. The small school options in each zone are open to all resident students. All school options offer college preparatory curriculum, A-G standards-based instruction, and preparation for college and careers.” (http://achieve.lausd.net/Page/1888)
  • El sitio web de LAUSD’s Zonas de opción dice, “La visión del Distrito Escolar Unificado de Los Ángeles es que cada estudiante recibirá una educación de calidad en un ambiente seguro y atento, y cada diplomado será preparado para universidad y carrera. Zonas de Opción ha surgido como una estrategia de aumentar el número de opciones educativas personalizadas disponibles para estudiantes. Zonas de Opción son áreas geográficas compuestos de múltiples opciones escolares. Las opciones de escuelas pequeñas en cada zona están abiertas a todos los estudiantes residentes y representan la demografía de la área local. Todas las opciones de escuela ofrecen currículo preparatorio de la universidad, instrucción A-G basados en estándares, y preparación para universidad y carrera.
