Pacific Grove Unified School District

All families who pre-register for Transitional Kindergarten at PGUSD will be accommodated at either Forest Grove Elementary or Robert Down Elementary.

 

Elementary students will be assigned a school based on their address within the district.

 

The transitional kindergarten (TK) class size maximum is 24 students, which is the allowable class size maximum for all TK programs in the State of California. In the event enrollment exceeds 72 students district-wide, a fourth TK classroom will be opened. The location of the additional TK classroom may result in some students attending TK at a school other than their neighborhood school site. In such cases, students will have the option to return to their neighborhood school the following year, for kindergarten. 

 

Pre-registration is intended to help us in planning for the next school year by providing approximate enrollment numbers, which help with staffing and facilities-related decisions.

 

Registration does not officially open until May 5, 2025, at which time parents will be informed of the school in which their child has been enrolled.

IntraDistrict Transfer Requests (requesting a school site other than your neighborhood school) will not be proceesed for approval until August 1st.  This will allow PGUSD familes time to register and the District time to develpoe class size to staffing ratios. 

District school site student priority placement is defined in Adminstrative Regulation 6170.1
