Transitional Kindergarten (TK) is a developmental kindergarten for students who will turn five years old between September 2nd and December 2nd. TK was created for children who were no longer age-eligible to attend kindergarten when California pushed back the kindergarten start date from December 2nd to September 2nd. Originally TK was to be a three year program to slowly "transition" the start date. The first year of TK all students turned five between November 1st and December 2nd. Imagine celebrating 31 birthdays in one month! The second year the TK months were from October 1st through December 2nd. The third year the transition was complete and TK was for students born on or before September 2nd through December 2nd. Thankfully the program was a success and the developmental fun has continued. We are now in year eight of TK and the developmental fun is going strong!
