Transitional Kindergarten and Kindergarten enrollment for next school year begins soon

Transitional Kindergarten and Kindergarten enrollment for next school year begins soon

It’s almost time to enroll your child in kindergarten or participate in the transitional kindergarten lottery.

San Juan Unified offers a nurturing environment for young learners to explore and grow. We have a variety of part-day and full-day options for transitional kindergarten and kindergarten for the 2025-26 school year. 

Transitional Kindergarten

Students who turn four by Sept. 1, 2025 are eligible to enroll in Transitional Kindergarten (TK) for the 2025-26 school year. 

TK enrollment for the 2025-26 school year will be conducted as a lottery. Students will be given resident school priority and there will be no other priorities. 

The 2025-26 TK lottery application process will be posted at www.sanjuan.edu/TK starting on Feb. 10 at 8 a.m. The lottery drawing results will be emailed to families that participated in late March and the email will come from a PowerSchool email account.

TK will be offered at all San Juan Unified elementary and K-8 schools next school year. Students enrolled in a school for TK will automatically remain at that school through the highest grade offered.

This is the final year of San Juan Unified’s TK expansion and the 2025-26 TK lottery is the district’s final TK lottery process. For TK enrollment in the 2026-27 school year, families will complete enrollment applications in February 2026, similar to the district’s process for kindergarten enrollment. Families who would like to choose a school other than their resident school for TK for the 2026-27 school year can participate in the open enrollment process, which will begin in December 2025. 

For help, visit our enrollment office at 3700 Garfield Ave. in Carmichael, email enrollment@sanjuan.edu, or call (916) SAN-JUAN (726-5826).

Kindergarten

Students who will be 5 years old on or before Sept. 1, 2025, can register for Kindergarten for the 2025-26 school year. Enrollment for next school year begins on Feb. 3 at 8 a.m. Through the online option, parents can upload the required enrollment documents, such as proof of age document, immunization records, and proof of address verifications, directly through our online enrollment platform.

Families can visit www.sanjuan.edu/kinder for more information and a complete list of enrollment requirements.
