South Lake Tahoe kindergarten and transitional kindergarten sign-ups

Sign-ups for both kindergarten and transitional kindergarten in Lake Tahoe Unified Schools will be held May 4 - May 8.

To be eligible for enrollment a child must be five years of age on or before September 1, 2015. If your child will turn five years of age between September 2 and December 2, 2015, they qualify for transitional kindergarten which is a two year Kindergarten program located at Tahoe Valley Elementary School.

To register, California Law requires that:

1. You bring child's birth certificate;
2. You bring proof of immunizations, which includes the Varicella (Chicken Pox), Hepatitis B and for most children - the last booster shot. Children will not be enrolled in school without presenting an up-to-date immunization record.
3. Your child has a health examination upon entry to school [schedule with your family Physician]
4. Your child has an oral health examination upon entry to school (dental examinations that have occurred in the last 12 months meet this requirement)
