The state directory lists it as a traditional elementary school, not a virtual or special-education program. Its website lists a Spanish and Mandarin dual language immersion program and GATE (gifted and talented education). Arts offerings on the site include band, choir and dance, musical theater, Mariachi Academy, ballet folklorico, integrated arts and after-school art time, plus culinary arts and a youth film and media project. Lego Robotics, Leader in Me, Soccer for Success and speech and debate are also listed. The site lists a before and after school program and says meals are free for all students. Each student also has a device, per the district's materials. It suits an El Monte family that wants a free neighborhood school with immersion and a broad arts and enrichment menu.","categories":["public-school"],"ages":{"min":5,"max":12},"grades":{"min":0,"max":6},"price":{"amount":0,"unit":"year","note":"Tuition-free public school."},"school":{"sector":"public","district":"El Monte City","code":"19645016013163"},"traits":{"faith":"secular","priceLevel":"budget","subsidized":true,"admission":"neighborhood","offers":["dual-language","gate","before-care","after-care","arts"],"methods":["immersion"],"includes":["meals","extended-care"],"feel":"A free public K-6 school with Spanish and Mandarin dual immersion, GATE, and a strong arts and enrichment schedule.","topics":["mandarin","folklorico","mariachi","lego","el-monte-city-school-district"]}}],"source":{"url":"https://cortada.emcsd.org/","fetched":"2026-10-09"},"updated":"2026-10-09","checked":null,"closed":null,"sample":false}
