OUR MISSION The mission of Pasadena ISD, the gateway to unlimited opportunity for the youth of our culturally rich community, is to empower students to become accomplished, self-directed, and collaborative citizen-scholars who boldly contribute to an increasingly complex and evolving world by engaging in rigorous curriculum, relevant experiences, and positive relationships while embracing the uniqueness of each individual. Our outstanding teachers and innovative programs have created an endless cycle of student achievement. With state recognized campuses, along with state and national Blue Ribbon Schools, and a history of national championships in Academic Decathlon and the National Academic Games, students in our schools thrive intellectually and socially in a dynamic learning environment. We see the students of today are the leaders of tomorrow. It's a picture of success that is created by a sound education in the Pasadena schools.
