Transitional Kindergarten is a developmental, hands on instructional program. Transitional Kindergarten Common Core Standards are taught and mastery of the standards is expected by the end of the school year. Teachers promote meaningful connections across subject matter and involve students in integrated educational experiences. Assessments will occur throughout the year to track progress.

TK is the first year of a two-year Kindergarten program. Upon completion of TK, students promote to Kindergarten. TK helps prepare students for educational success in Kindergarten and beyond. 

TK hours are the same as Kindergarten.

Potentially all CVUSD elementary school sites (except EARThS) will have a TK class in the 2023-24 school year. As enrollment occurs through the winter and spring, a final determination of which school sites will have TK classes in the 2023-24 School Year will be made and families will be notified of a final placement for their TK student.

Students born between 9/2/2018 and 4/2/19 are eligible for TK only.

**Students born between 7/1/18 and 9/1/18 are no longer eligible for TK.**
