New Student Enrollment Begins for TUSD

By Paso Robles Press · Thu Feb 03 2022

Interdistrict Transfer requests will be accepted beginning Mar. 1

TEMPLETON—New student enrollment (TK-2 grade) for the 2022-23 school year has begun! Please email the following three items required to pre-register your new student(s) to jfielder@templetonusd.org.

• Proof of Residence (Current utility bill or escrow documents with your name and physical address on it)
• Child’s Birth Certificate
• Immunization records (even if not current for school entry)

**California Senate Bill 277 states that exemptions for religious beliefs or other personal beliefs will no longer be accepted.

Please be advised that kindergarten class placement is based on many factors. AM/PM class preference will be considered but cannot be guaranteed.

Letters confirming AM/PM placement will be mailed in late June for all students whose online registration is complete, and a copy of a current immunization record that meets all of the requirements for school entry has been submitted.

The Kindergarten Readiness Act changed the age for entrance into kindergarten in California. Children must be five years of age for kindergarten by Sept. 1 for the 2022-2023 school year.

Transitional kindergarten is the first year of a two-year kindergarten program for children whose kindergarten entrance is changed as a result of this law. Children will be enrolled in Transitional Kindergarten if their fifth birthday is between Sept. 2 and Feb. 2 for the 2022-2023 school year.

**All Transitional Kindergarten students must meet the same requirements as Kindergarten students, including proof of residency, birth certificate, and immunizations current for school entry.

Interdistrict Transfer requests will be accepted beginning Mar. 1. You must first be released from your district of residence before contacting the Templeton District Office at 960 Old County Road.
