Dual Language Learners in Transitional Kindergarten
California’s Universal Transitional Kindergarten (UTK) multi-year expansion is a historic investment to expand access to early learning programs for every 4-year-old in the state. Alongside other early learning and care programs in the mixed-delivery Universal PreKindergarten (UPK) system, TK aims to provide young learners with the foundational experiences they need to thrive as they enter kindergarten and beyond. The following article showcases the impactful work taking place across California school districts—from university partnerships that support bilingual TK educators to the growth of dual language immersion (DLI) programs, and the creation of inclusive, welcoming environments for all children.
