Tulita Elementary School

My children attended for 5th and K while I lived in the area for one year. The experience was AMAZING! My children transferred in 3months before summer break from homeschool so my biggest worry was that they would be placed by age vs competency (they were both 2yrs ahead per placement testing). I was so pleased to find out the kindergarteners could already read! The environment was great too---no problem dropping in to check on my children. HIGHLY recommend if you live in the area.

For public, this little school does a great job. Admin and teachers are helpful and nice and more important available if needed. Low key school that my kid liked.

I Can't say enough great things about Tulita. My son graduated from Tulita 2 years ago and my daughter is in her last year. I am so sad to leave such a great environment of teachers, parents and students.

I 100% agree with the posting that said "I have two kids here, and while their education is adequate..." I do have two children that have gone through Tulita and have not been satisfied with the school. We are not alone. The problem has been seen with the last 3 principals. The PTA runs the school. They schedule meetings in the morning so that leaves working parents out. PTA parents get the teachers they want for their kids and their kids get most of the awards and pictures on the website etc, If you are financially unable to contribute to the school fundraisers you get repeated phone calls and notes home. The WORST is the tolerance for bullying. This has been a problem with the last 3 principals. Parents have needed repeated meetings with administration and have come away frustrated. Some have even retained lawyers. People spend a lot of money to buy houses in this area because they feel their children will receive a better than average education. That all depends on the teacher they get. Some teachers are more dedicated than others.
