The Pasadena area is known for its creative and innovative economy as well as the quality of its educational institutions. As a school district, our mission is to ensure that when students graduate from our schools, they are prepared not only for college and careers, but for life in an ever changing world.

PUSD is continuously working to enhance practices so our graduates are able to succeed and lead locally and globally. We have implemented a curriculum aligned to the California State Standards infused with 21st Century skills (Communication, Critical Thinking, Creativity, and Collaboration) to prepare our students for a rapidly evolving society.
