Is elementary school free in California?

Elementary school is free in California: a basic right for all children.

In California, elementary education is a basic right for all children. The state prides itself on offering quality, accessible education to all, regardless of socioeconomic background. However, it is important to understand what is really meant for free elementary school in this state.

First of all, it is important to know what elementary means. Elementary school, also known as basic education, covers the first years of a child’s formal education, usually from the age of 5 to 11. During this time, students acquire foundational skills in areas such as reading, writing, math, science, and social studies.
