In 2021, legislation was passed that requires any local educational agency (LEA- school district) operating a kindergarten to also provide a TK program for all 4-year-old children by 2025–26. UTK means that by 2025–26, regardless of background, race, zip code, immigration status, or income level, every child will have access to TK as a quality learning experience the year before kindergarten. UTK falls under the Universal PreKindergarten umbrella. It is now considered the second year of preschool and early childhood education. 

National School District is very fortunate to have amazing educators that have specialized coursework in early childhood education. We invite you to enroll your child with us today!

All students must have turned five by September 1 to quality for a traditional kindergarten program.

For the 2024-2025 school year, we are offering an opportunity to attend a "transitional" kindergarten program to those students who turn five by June 6, 2025 (Birthdate between June 6, 2019 and June 5, 2020). 

For the 2025-2026 school year, we are offering an opportunity to attend a "transitional" kindergarten program to those students who turn five by September 2, 2026 (Birthdate between September 2, 2020 and September 1, 2021).
