Kindergarten Registration is Just Around the Corner
Will your child start kindergarten in 2016? Registration dates in Lamorinda's school districts are just
around the corner. To be eligible for kindergarten, a child must turn 5 years old by Sept.1.
To be eligible for the transitional kindergarten program, a child must have his or her fifth birthday between Sept. 2 and Dec. 2. Children currently enrolled in transitional kindergarten are not required to complete the kindergarten registration process for next year.
New immunization requirements for 2016, under a new law known as SB277 that begins Jan. 1, state that exemptions based on personal beliefs will no longer be an option for the vaccines that are currently required for entry into child care or school in California.
