Our district offers a Transitional Kindergarten (TK) program for children who will reach the age of five between September 2nd, 2022 through February 2nd, 2023. The TK program is considered the first year of a two-year kindergarten program that focuses on preparing students for kindergarten. The program is a full-day program, with no cost to parents.  

Our Transitional Kindergarten Program will provide the youngest kindergarteners with a readiness year that is developmentally appropriate and will better prepare them for success once they enter traditional kindergarten. 

A child is eligible to attend TK for the 2022 – 2023 school year if they will have their 5th birthday between September 2, 2022 and February 2, 2023.
