Transitional Kindergarten (TK)
With a balance of play and engaging instructional approaches, Robla’s Transitional Kindergarten is the first year of a two- year kindergarten program that provides them with the first year of the social, emotional, and academic skills and learning they need to be successful in kindergarten. This is a free program in Robla School District.
TK represents a true bridge between preschool and regular traditional Kindergarten. Transitional Kindergarteners learn by doing, playing, talking, listening, and modeling others. Taught by a credentialed teacher with early childhood expertise, TK uses a unique, specialized curriculum that is based on the Common Core Kindergarten standards but is designed explicitly to support the social, emotional, physical, and academic needs of young 5 year-olds.
Eligibility: Your child can attend TK if they are 4 years old, and will turn 5 between before September 2, 2024-June 2, 2025. for the 2024-2025 school year. For the 2025-2026 school year, these children will attend kindergarten.
Our TK program is housed at Main Avenue School and Bell Avenue School, and is open to all children who live within Robla School District’s boundaries. We plan to expand this program at all of our schools.
Schedule: Our TK schedule includes a 6 hour program, and has the same schedule as our kindergarten through third grade schedule.
Additional Services: Transportation, breakfast and lunch are provided to all students. We are also offering an Extended Day program for our TK students. This program will allow students to stay at school for activities and learning until approximately 6:00 in the evening.

Kindergarten
Robla School District’s kindergarten program will not only boost your child’s academic achievement throughout their schooling, but also strengthen their social and emotional skills.
What your child will experience in kindergarten:
Our full-day kindergarten offers benefits to teachers and parents—teachers have more time to work with students, and parents have access to better learning and care for their children. Children come to kindergarten with many different skills and talents and at many different levels of readiness. For this reason, the kindergarten program will ease students into the school year at their own comfort level.
