School overview
Tarzana Elementary
Who governs Tarzana Elementary, what its current public budget and plan show, and where the school-level record is thin. Part of Los Angeles Unified School District.
Who makes school-level decisions?
Tarzana Elementary is governed by Los Angeles Unified School District. The public plan says family surveys, Coffee with the Principal, and the annual welcome breakfast informed planning, while the district directory identifies Rene N Christian-Cofield as principal. The collected record does not include School Site Council, Local School Leadership Council, or English Learner Advisory Committee agendas or minutes.
District governance
LAUSD governs the school; the current directory places it in Board District 4 and the North Region.
Current planning
LAUSD's FSEP approved the FY 2026-27 Targeted Student Population plan on August 14, 2026.
Family input
The plan describes surveys and Coffee with the Principal as ways the school gathered family feedback.
The unavailable school-site archive does not establish that councils did not meet or that the principal did not send updates; it means those records were not collected.
What the public records show
Includes staffing, other salary items, materials, and support costs; it is a budget snapshot, not actual spending.
