 The Pasadena Tournament of Roses Association has selected eight high school seniors as 
the 2025 ROSE Scholars. This year, the program awarded $20,000 in scholarships to eight 
graduating seniors from the Pasadena Unified School District (PUSD).

2025 ROSE Scholars:

 Jameel Franco – John Muir High School

 Fletcher Paddock – John Muir High School

 Gael Lemus – John Muir High School

 Andrew Pimentel – Pasadena High School

 Leila Nafarrete – CIS Academy (Center for Independent Study)

 Alyssa Yepez – Pasadena High School

 Tehilah Favour Ofumbi – Marshall Fundamental Secondary School

 Keilah Yu – Marshall Fundamental Secondary School

 “At the Tournament of Roses, we believe in the power of creativity to inspire, heal 
and connect,” said Mark Leavens, President of the 2026 Tournament of Roses. 

“This year’s Rose Scholars embody that drive, many of which courageously used art 
and personal expression to share their experiences during the Eaton fires. We are 
proud to celebrate these resilient students and support their dreams through this 
scholarship program. Our deepest appreciation and thanks to David Brager and 
Citizens Business Bank for their steadfast partnership, which helps us uplift the next 
generation of leaders and changemakers.”

 To date, the program has awarded $100,000 to PUSD seniors.

 The Association and the Tournament of Roses Foundation are focused on positively 
impacting the Pasadena community with charitable giving, volunteerism and 
community involvement. As part of this work, the Association has partnered with 
Citizens Business Bank for ROSE Scholars and other signature community programs.
