Notes: BOLD “Ungraded” “Prekindergarten”, “Transitional (or readiness) kindergarten”,
“Kindergarten”, AND “Transitional first (or pre-first) grade” IN HELP TEXT.
HELP FOR CODE 1: Ungraded: A classroom containing children with an age
span of two or more years, not formally identified by grade(s).
HELP FOR CODE 2: Prekindergarten: Prekindergarten includes early childhood
education programs, nursery school, or preschool.
HELP FOR CODE 3: Transitional (or readiness) kindergarten (TK): A
transitional kindergarten (TK) program is an extra year of school before
kindergarten starts. It is different from preschool, Head Start, or
prekindergarten. TK may be for children who are too young to start
kindergarten or need more time to be ready for kindergarten. Schools have
different names for these programs (for example, early transitional kindergarten
(ETK), readiness kindergarten, or a kindergarten equivalent in a classroom
without grades or one with multiple grades), but all are types of kindergarten.
The program may be in a public or private school, or an early childhood setting
such as a nursery school, early childhood learning center, or day care center. It
may be a full- or part-day program and have regular and/or special education.
HELP FOR CODE 4: Kindergarten: Traditional year of school primarily for 5year-olds prior to first grade.
HELF FOR CODE 5: Transitional first (or pre-first) grade: Transitional first (or
pre-first) grade is a school program between kindergarten and the first grade.
The name of this program may vary by school (for example, a K-1 class or
placement). It is for children who have attended kindergarten but need more
time to be ready for the first grade. Children in this program may be part of a
regular first-grade classroom or in a separate classroom.

and the native language of the child of limited English proficiency to the extent
necessary to allow the child to achieve competence.
Dual Language Instruction: Also known as two-way immersion, the goal of
these programs is for students to develop language proficiency in two
languages by receiving content instruction in English and another language in a
classroom that usually consists of both native English speakers and native
speakers of the other language.
