Summary: The Policy was updated to reflect the distinction between compulsory education for students starting at age six and the requirement for districts to offer and admit students who are eligible for transitional kindergarten, delete the requirement for district enrollment applications to include information about health care options as the law requiring such information has self-repealed, and clarify that a student's residence is a location within the district that may be verified as part of school admission requirements.

The Regulation was updated for consistency with NEW LAW (AB 130, 2021) which revises the timespans for transitional kindergarten (TK) admittance requirements to be phased in from the 2022-23 school year to the 2025-26 school year, as reflected in BP 6170.1 - Transitional Kindergarten.
