KINDERGARTEN ELIGIBILITY 2025-26
Transitional Kindergarten will not be offered for the 2024-2025 or 2025-2026 school year. Registrations are not being accepted.
Birthdates for Kindergarten Enrollment (2025-26)
- Students born on or before September 1, 2020 (students turning 5 years old on or before September 1, 2025)
Holding Students Back
- Children eligible for Kindergarten are not required to enroll, as Kindergarten is not mandatory.
- However, parents and guardians must enroll their children in school once they reach the age of six (EC Section 48200). It is a school-based decision, with parental input, whether the six-year-old student will be enrolled in Kindergarten or first grade. For first grade enrollment, California law requires a child to be six years old on or before September 1 to be legally eligible for first grade (EC Section 48010).
Kindergarten Class Sizes
- Our goal is to remain at an average of 24 students per classroom.
