In the Oakland Unified School District (OUSD), students can attend their neighborhood schools or choose other schools in the district (called intradistrict choice) through the open enrollment process, as long as there is space; open enrollment applications are due in mid-January. Students can also attend charter schools. Gifted education programs are available for elementary, middle and high school students. The district also provides special education services.
