Transitional Kindergarten Data

Downloadable data files for school-level Transitional Kindergarten program-participation data disaggregated by race/ethnicity, gender, and student group (i.e., English learner, migrant, and socio-economically disadvantaged status).

Files include state, county, district, and school level data. Please refer to the file structure for details on what data are contained in the file. For more information about the TK program, refer to the Transitional Kindergarten Frequently Asked Questions page.

Note: Pursuant to Education Code Section 60900(a)(4)(A), beginning in 2023–24, the CDE began collecting TK as a separate grade in CALPADS, rather than as a program participation record which has now been retired. Moving forward, information about TK students is available in the Census Day Enrollment Data file.
