Superintendent's Update - February 2023; We are so proud of the determination that we witness every day in our El Monte Union students as they reach toward their academic and athletic goals. Their achievements are truly outstanding and we know none of them would be possible without the hard work of our staff, faculty and administrations. Two of those great achievements this month were South El Monte High School’s Academic Decathlon students becoming the first group of Eagles headed to the State Championships and Fernando R. Ledesma High School being recognized as a 2023 Model Continuation High School. Our students also saw successes in athletics, with many of our winter sports teams qualifying and competing in CIF and state championships, and taking titles in the Mission Valley League championship.
