Just some of the great things about Cordillera:

·Participation in Class Act, a grant program funded by the Pacific Symphony Orchestra where students study a different composer each year, taught by a musician from the Pacific Symphony.

·Active parent involvement through the PTA and School Site Council, volunteering hundreds of hours on campus as well as providing students with assemblies, fine arts programs and technology.
