Transitional Kindergarten (TK)

Program dates are extending!

For the 2025-2026 school year, TK is open to students who  be born between September 2, 2020 - September 1, 2021.

Transitional kindergarten is one of the state of California's Universal Pre-K options, designed to give all 4-year-olds access to an early learning  experience.  TK gives children the “gift of time” to develop foundational behaviors, skills, and opportunities to promote success and confidence in kindergarten and beyond.

TK instruction takes place in a flexible, play-centered environment, attentive to the social and emotional development of each child. The curriculum follows California state guidelines with a pacing that is developmentally appropriate, while encouraging cultural and linguistic diversity.

For TK Enrollment

In order to register for TK for the 2025-2026 school year, your child's Date of Birth MUST be between September 2, 2020 - September 1, 2021. Registration for TK opens January 13, 2025 for the 2025-2026 school year. Parents are highly encouraged to begin the registration process online as early as possible.
