Castelar Elementary School is the second oldest continuously operating school in Los Angeles. Built in Chinatown in the early 1880s, the school still occupies and uses one of its original structures. The Los Angeles State Historic Park at the Cornfield will bring much needed open space and recreation to the children of Castelar. There is not a single blade of grass at the school, and barely any trees.
