our teachers and schools create learning communities that welcome and in-spire every 
student.”

With exceptional educational opportunities for every learner, the schools of the Pasa-dena 
Unified School District (PUSD) are a launchpad for every child’s success. PUSD of-fers 
a wide range of programs, from traditional schools to programs such as dual lan-guage 
immersion, STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics), Visual and Performing 
Arts, magnet schools, International Baccalaureate, and Early College, Math and 
App academies. All PUSD schools provide a rigorous standards-based cur-riculum in safe 
environments that welcome every learner. The faculty and staff of PUSD are dedicated to 
ensuring that every child flourishes academically, socially, and emo-tionally, whether learning
