Transitional KindergartenIf your child’s birthday falls between 11/1/2007 – 12/2/2007, your child is Eligible for Transitional Kindergarten in Santa Clara Unified School District. School isn't just about developing a child's intellectual capabilities; there are emotional, social, and physical factors to consider. Allowing an extra year for our young five year olds provides an opportunity for students to grow in these areas before facing the rigor of the academic world. The State of California is now offering a new program called Transitional Kindergarten to help meet the needs of these younger 5 year olds. For more information click this link, or contact your elementary school secretary or visit the Santa Clara Unified School District website at www.santaclarausd.org New Law Regarding Tdap Pertussis Booster ShotsPertussis (also known as whooping cough) is widespread in California. There is a new law which requires all students who will be entering 7th – 12th grade next fall to show proof of having received a Tdap Pertussis booster shot given after their 10th birthday.More information regarding this law can be found at www.santaclarausd.org Prepay for School Lunches OnlinePlease take advantage of the options to prepay your student's meal accounts. Prepaid meal accounts help the lunch lines go faster and gives students more time to eat, relax, and play. It also gives you the peace of mind of not having to worry about looking for lunch money every day or worry that it might get lost, stolen or used for other things other than lunch.
