Big News! We are Starting an English-Spanish Dual Immersion Program!
Beginning with the kindergarten class of 2024-2025, all Ohlone students will be in a dual immersion program. Students with any home language may enroll and will be taught to be bilingual and biliterate in English and Spanish! The program is open to all students in the Ohlone attendance area and other students may enroll with an interdistrict transfer. To learn more, check out our Welcome to Ohlone newsletter. For enrollment information, visit the PVUSD Enrollment page. We still have room for more kindergartners in the dual language program, but spaces are filling up fast!
Welcome 2024-2025 Kindergartners!
We have a very important event for new kindergarteners to start off the year. We will be having a kindergarten orientation on August 8, 2024. Students and parents will be able to tour the school and get to know the kindergarten staff and classrooms. Our teachers and aides will be getting to know the children so we can make well-balanced classes. After we have met the new students and gotten to know their strengths and needs, we will make classes balanced for language and academic needs and assign teachers. We will post the classes and teachers by Monday, August 12. The first day of school for all students is Wednesday, August 14.

Kindergarten orientation will be approximately 1.5 hours. We will tour the school and have a snack in the cafeteria. Students will have a chance to play in the classroom and we will observe how they interact with others. We will assess their language (so we can balance the classes for English and Spanish proficiency) and their school readiness skills. Parents will be interviewed about their child’s developmental milestones, health, and school history.
