The Transitional Kindergarten Program will serve as a bridge between preschool and traditional kindergarten, offering age and developmentally appropriate curriculum for our youngest students. Transitional Kindergarten is the first year of a two year kinder program designed to give students additional time to develop stronger academic, social, and emotional skills necessary for future success. The classes are taught by credentialed teachers to promote a strong foundation for the student.

Transitional Kindergarten is an optional program and is offered free of charge to age-eligible children.

 

The Kindergarten Readiness Act of 2010 requires all California school districts to begin offering a Transitional Kindergarten program starting the 2012-2013 school year. The law also moves the eligibility dates for both kindergarten and transitional kindergarten.
