| | Palermo Union School District is located in the northern part of California's Sacramento Valley, just south of Oroville and 64 miles north of Sacramento, the state capital. The District includes parts of both the Lassen and Plumas National Forests.
Palermo Union School District is a “School of Choice District,” which means that it has an open enrollment policy within the district boundaries. The purpose of the policy is to offer options to meet the diverse needs, potential, and interest of district students. Students in grades kindergarten through eight who reside within district boundaries may apply for enrollment in the school of their choice. | |
