Transitional Kindergarten

Transitional Kindergarten (TK)

Los Altos Christian School’s Transitional Kindergarten (TK) program provides a joyful and purposeful start to a child’s academic journey. Designed for children who are ready for a full-day learning experience, TK bridges the transition from preschool to kindergarten in a nurturing, Christ-centered environment.

Our TK students are known, supported, and encouraged as they grow academically, socially, emotionally, and spiritually.
