Due to recent changes in Google's settings, students will no longer be able to sign in to many websites using Google. If you have been using the "Sign in with Google" button to log in to non-PUSD and non-instructional websites, such as social media sites (Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, etc.), you will need to update your account with a personal email address. This change will occur in the next couple of weeks, so please make sure you've updated these accounts no later than October 15th.

While Pasadena Unified is able to provide all students with free school meals through our participation in the Community Eligibility Provision grant program, the district is required to collect a household income form for each student to maintain our eligibility for that program and to ensure we receive all of our state and federal funding.

Please take about 5 minutes to complete this form so that we can ensure that your child’s school receives appropriate funding.

We are currently in the process of retrieving lost chromebooks. If your chromebook gets locked, please see your Librarian or Office Manager to get the device unlocked and/or submit a ticket with the device's service tag.

Please remember to completely shut down your Chromebook at the end of every day! This will ensure your device has received all necessary updates and that you are able to connect to all PUSD applications without issue.

A reminder that Chromebooks are instructional materials, similar to textbooks. We have been receiving a large number of tickets from school sites and from students stating students have lost or damaged their devices. Chromebooks range in cost from $389 to $758. We understand that devices may be misplaced and that accidents happen, but please make every effort to take care of your devices as well as locate lost devices before submitting a ticket for device replacement.

Once a device has been reported lost or stolen, it will be locked and unusable.
