– Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., activist
“BHM is vital not only for its commemoration of historical achievements, but also for its role in educating and reminding us of the resilience and creativity that have been pivotal in shaping the world we live in.” – Black at Fetch Employee Resource Group

Hello Pasadena High Parents and Guardians,
We want to address some concerns that have been brought to our attention regarding a rumored threat to our school. Please rest assured that these rumors have been thoroughly investigated and found to be without merit.
There was never any threat directed at our school.
For your peace of mind, we have increased security presence on campus and are working closely with PISD Police in their ongoing investigation.
We understand the paramount importance of safety in our school. It is the foundation upon which learning can thrive. We are committed to providing a secure environment and to communicate transparently with you.
Your cooperation and support in focusing on facts rather than speculation are vital. Should you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to us.
Thank you for your continued trust and support.
Pasadena High Admin

To the Class of 1973: Your legacy is as timeless as the game itself. Here’s to half a century of memories and many more to come. Your spirit has truly stood the test of time! GO Mighty Eagles!
