The priority registration window for the 2024-25 school year is open from January 10, 2024 to February 16, 2024. This priority registration window is intended for NEW students who are joining Petaluma City Schools. Elementary schools will begin hosting tours for prospective families in January and tours will continue into the spring. Whether you have an incoming TK or kindergarten student, or you're considering a change for your current elementary-aged student, we welcome you to join a campus tour!
If you have a student who is already attending a PCS elementary school, you do not need to register your child. If you accidentally miss the priority registration window, families may still submit applications for enrollment after the window closes. All TK-6 registration takes place online via SchoolMint. When registering, please pay careful attention to select the correct school year for your online application.
TK enrollment for the 2024-25 school year is open to students who turn five between September 2, 2024 and June 2, 2025.
You may contact school sites directly for more information about enrollment, or to schedule a tour of a Transitional Kindergarten classroom.

In Transitional Kindergarten teachers help children develop social skills through activities that build confidence and communication. They also expose children to reading and math in an exciting, interactive way by using educational games to teach children about words and sentences and help them understand mathematical concepts like counting and patterns.
Transitional Kindergarten provides children with an opportunity to learn in an enriching and academically challenging environment that nurtures their growth. Research shows that children who attend kindergarten readiness programs like Transitional Kindergarten are more likely to do well in school and attend college.
Parents all over California recognize the benefits of Transitional Kindergarten and many parents have already been enrolling their children in similar programs, public and private, for years. Transitional Kindergarten supports students with a strong educational foundation with a curriculum that is designed just for them.
