Transitional Kindergarten
Transitional Kindergarten Update for 2025-26 School Year
A bulletin came out in late September (TK Funding bulletin) which raises questions about funding for Transitional Kindergarten. As of 1/25, we have been assured that funding will continue through the 25-26 school year, so we will continue with screening and enrollment as planned. Any additional updates will be posted here and sent to all interested families.
HHES is excited to offer Transitional Kindergarten to 4-year-old students at Hockinson Heights Elementary. Transitional Kindergarten (TK) is a full-day preschool program. The goal of the TK program is to get each student ready for a successful Kindergarten year by providing a high-quality early-learning experience. TK students receive instruction in reading, writing, mathematics, and social skills from a Hockinson teacher who specializes in early childhood education. Students participate in specialist classes (art, music, and PE) and attend lunch and recess during the school day.
