Office Hours

The Tulita school office is open Monday through Friday 8:00 am to 4:00 pm.

Attendance

Students are expected to attend school daily unless they are ill.  The only excused absences are those for illness or bereavement.  All others will be noted as unexcused on the child's record.  All absences must be verified by the parent.  They can be reported by phone (310.798.8628), in person, or by a written note.

Taking a Child Out of School

To take a student from school during the day, parents must report to the school office and sign the child out.  Office staff will call for the student to come to the office.  Should the student return to school the same day, parents must sign him/her back in at the office. No student will be released to anyone other than a parent unless specified on the student's emergency information card or granted written permission by the parent.
