Note on Transitional Kindergarten

All eight elementary schools will have transitional kindergarten programs in the 2024-2025 school year. If you are a resident in the neighborhood in which you wish to enroll, please click the first link above to begin the enrollment process. If you wish to enroll in a school other than your neighborhood school, please click the third link above to request an intra-district transfer permit.

Although all schools will offer transitional kindergarten programs, it is possible that the school you prefer will reach capacity in the transitional kindergarten program prior to the first day of school. If a school reaches capacity, priority for enrollment will be given to families with a returning sibling already attending that school, then to families without a returning sibling within the neighborhood of the school
