- Parent Support
- We believe the family unit is the foundation of our society, and we realize that a strong partnership with parents is essential to the success of our students. We seek to strengthen the family unit by providing academic advocacy and coaching, parenting classes, counseling, support groups, and other learning opportunities like ESL and technology classes to engage parents in both their child/student’s academic process and their own educational process.

- Enrichment Through Community Partnership
- Together with organizations such as the Boy Scouts, the Pasadena Armory Center for the Arts, The Outdoor Classroom and the Junior League of Pasadena, we not only provide activities that may not otherwise be easily accessed by our students, but also model community-wide interdependence and joint ownership of the education of our city’s youth.
