We are proud to offer a full-day Transitional Kindergarten program, which provides a bridge between preschool and kindergarten in a vibrant, nurturing, and supportive environment.
This play-based program meets the needs of our very young students at their level, and it makes them excited about coming to school.
TK serves children who do not meet the age eligibility for regular Kindergarten. With TK, 4-year-olds get a gift of classroom time that will help them build a strong foundation for success in school. TK students also are eligible to participate in EUSD’s after-school enrichment programs.
Save a seat for your little learner now through the New Student Registration webpage! TK is offered at all 17 elementary schools in EUSD. Students who turn 5 between September 2, 2023, and June 2, 2024, are eligible for TK for the 2023-2024 school year.

FARMER'S MARKET!
Our Juniper Jaguars had a visit from a farmer from Northern California, who brought fresh produce for students. He spoke about what it takes to grow fruits and vegetables, as well as healthy eating. Our students then went shopping to pick out fruits and vegetables to take home.
