Interested families in the Berkeley Unified school district should contact their district representatives 

 

 

Participants who are NOT part of Berkeley Unified School District or North Regional SELPA are required to receive an inter-district transfer to enroll in the ACAT program. To start the process interested families must go through school district officials not Ala Costa Centers
