Late Enrollment Intradistrict transfer WCCUSD?
Hi community! We recently moved to Point Richmond to be closer to my husband's job, and are now subsequently late in the game enrolling our incoming 4th grade daughter into the WCCUSD schools. We were hopeful that Washington Elementary (our zoned neighborhood school) would work for us, but after touring and chatting with the principal and teachers, we realized that our daughter would need significant tutoring to catch up with the Spanish speaking immersion program (she currently speaks no Spanish), putting her at a big disadvantage.
We are now hoping to transfer her (at the 11th hour) to one of the other WCCUSD schools - we've heard good things about Harding, Madera, Mira Vista, and Fairmont. Any advice on any of these schools and how to successfully transfer in late is greatly appreciated!

I suspect Madera will be over-enrolled (this is our local school and my son was on the waitlist this year for K even though he is zoned for this area). I'd contact the transfer department at WCCUSD directly and see if they can provide intel. Since this is a later grade you may have more luck!
