How do I register my child?

Please bring the following items for registering your child:

  1. Your student's immunization (shot) record.
  2. Proof of your address. Acceptable forms are: Escrow documentation or purchase, copy if lease or rent receipt, PG&E bill, water bill or property tax receipt indicating your name and address.
  3. To register for kindergarten, we need your child's birth certificate.
  4. To register for grades 1-6, we will need your child's last report card.
  5. A physical examination is required of all students beginning school for the first time. The physical must have been performed after the child is four and a half years of age.

Please check the pages on Registering your child for more information.

 

Which school will my child attend?

Finding out what school your child will attend is easy if you know what street you will be living on. Check the page that lists all the street names.

 

How old does my child have to be to start Kindergarten in the fall?

New students must be placed in a grade level that is appropriate to their age. This is true for Kindergarten students as well as students in other grades. A child must be 5 by December 2 in order to enroll in Kindergarten. Likewise, a child must be 6 by December 2 to enroll in first grade, 7 by December 2 to enroll in second grade, etc.

According to policy, the Student Study Team can recommend that a student be promoted to the next grade once the school personnel have had a chance to assess the child to determine that he / she is in the top 5% of students academically, and corresponding social and emotional growth are evident. In any case, the student MUST BE PLACED IN A GRADE LEVEL APPROPRIATE TO THE CHILD'S AGE AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE DECEMBER 2 CUT-OFF UNTIL SUCH ASSESSMENT TAKES PLACE.

What shots are required to start school in California?

The following web pages have a complete list of required Immunization

 

I live in off Base, can my child still attend Travis Schools?

Even though you may be living off base and/or out of our district boundaries, there is the option of applying for an "Inter-district agreement". Please refer to our section on how to apply for this agreement in the newcomer's corner. It is important that you know that Travis Unified School District places a priority upon accepting military dependents into their schools.
