    What is Transitional Kindergarten?

    Transitional Kindergarten is a bridge between preschool and kindergarten for children turning five between September 2, 2023, through April 2, 2024. It provides young learners a head start and the opportunity to learn and grow in an environment that is tailored to meet their academic and social needs.  TK class sizes are smaller than other class sizes to support our youngest learners.

    The TK program gives students an additional opportunity to continue to build their skills and abilities. Their time in TK will help them to succeed in Kindergarten, become leaders in the classroom, and confidently navigate the school day routine.

    The TK class provides opportunities for social-emotional and language development, including mathematics functions through interactive, hands-on activities, which helps students develop and build upon existing skills to be successful in kindergarten, and stimulating classroom instruction with a focus on science, mathematics, writing, arts and crafts, and community role play.

    TK is part of the public school system and is free to participating students. Registration in the program is optional.

    Students attend the one-year program and the following year begin Kindergarten.

    Credentialed teachers using the district-adopted curriculum teach Transitional Kindergarten.
