Birthdate / Enrollment Matrix
Updated: January 27, 2026
Use this chart to determine when your child will be eligible to attend school based on the child's birthdate.
NOTE: At this time, California State Law and compulsory education (required school enrollment) is currently for 1st grade, the age of 6. As enrollment guidelines are shifting, this requirement, too, may shift. Check back periodically for updated information.
