San Diego Unified School District families can soon start enrolling their children in transitional kindergarten, which will have more classrooms next school year and fewer children in each one. The 2025-2026 program will grow from 229 to 252 classrooms districtwide and reduce classroom sizes from 24 to 20 students. There are two educators per class. “Our strategic placement of these additional classrooms in high-demand areas ensures that more families can access quality early education right within their own neighborhoods,” wrote Marceline Sciuto, the district’s executive director of operations support, in a Thursday press release. The application process begins Saturday and will remain open throughout the year. Placement will be communicated within two to three weeks. Enrollment applications must be submitted online on the San Diego Unified School District website. Families unable to access the online application should contact the Neighborhood Schools and Enrollment Office. The district also offers consultations with an enrollment specialist. The Family Welcome and Enrollment Center has a bilingual staff available at 619-260-2410 or eoptions@sandi.net in English or Spanish, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on weekdays. Information presented at workshops will be available on the website, and in-person help is available at district offices during the enrollment period. ...read more read less
