Open Enrollment

If you are interested in enrolling in one of our schools through Open Enrollment, please visit our Open Enrollment page to learn about the process. Families can apply for 2025-2026 Open Enrollment February 3, 2025 - February 21, 2025. 

It is recommended that you register your kindergartener at their neighborhood school before applying for Open Enrollment in case your child is not selected through the lottery.

If you have any questions about kindergarten enrollment, please contact the Enrollment Center. 

Current Transitional Kindergarten Students

Students will be automatically enrolled in kindergarten for the 2025-2026 school year at their neighborhood school*. 

Transitional Kindergarten (TK) is only available at 34 of Sacramento City Unified School District schools for the 2024-2025 school year, so all TK students* living within district boundaries are transitioned back to their neighborhood school for traditional kindergarten enrollment. Each neighborhood school has a defined geographic boundary and is intended to serve the students who live within that geographic boundary. 

Students that apply for enrollment at the school they attended for transitional kindergarten will be given priority in the Open Enrollment lottery for kindergarten. 

Parent/guardians will receive an email and letter in early January 2025 with more information on their student¡¯s enrollment for kindergarten.

*TK students currently enrolled at one of our schools without a geographic attendance boundary (A.M. Winn, Alice Birney, Leonardo da Vinci, and New Joseph Bonnheim) will continue at the same school for kindergarten.
