Castelar Elementary School

That’s right, tonight is the night I get all nostalgic and Unilocal my old schools!
Castelar is located on the edge of Chinatown and was my first school. I only completed Kindergarten through 2^nd grade here, but definitely had a lot of experiences I will never forget. My teachers were all really nice and caring. I recently learned that I was part of the «open classroom» movement (also known as classrooms without walls). I never even knew there was a name for that! I thought it was just a money saving scheme or something to have less walls.
The school has changed over the years since I’ve attended in the early 90’s, but I’ve visited a few times just for kicks. The lunch area is a lot bigger than the one at my second elementary school and I remember the lunch ladies being really efficient and I never had to wait too long in line. The teachers I had were top notched and really cared about their students. They’d use so many different methods to teach us and I never felt bored in class.
Yay Castelar!
