Principal's Message

A Warm Welcome to the 2026-2027 School Year!

Dear Students, Parents, and Guardians,

On behalf of the Pasco High School staff and administration, welcome to the 2026–2027 school year! We are excited to begin another year of learning, growth, and Bulldog Pride.

This school year, our focus is on helping every student thrive academically, socially, and personally. Together, we will:

  • Improve student attendance.
  • Increase engagement and participation in the classroom.
  • Support every student in developing and updating a meaningful High School and Beyond Plan.
  • Prepare all students for success in post-secondary education, careers, and life after graduation.

We believe that when schools and families work together, students are more likely to achieve their goals and reach their full potential.

Since 1909, Pasco High School has been a cornerstone of education in our community, honoring tradition while embracing progress. Guided by our mission, we are deeply committed to fostering a supportive, inclusive environment where every student feels valued and academic excellence is the standard.

Our Vision

All Pasco High School graduates will be:

  • Employable
  • Financially literate
  • Effective communicators
  • Problem solvers
  • Critical thinkers

...prepared to thrive in a diverse, ever-changing global community.

This vision drives our work and is supported by the AVID Schoolwide framework, which helps students develop essential skills in:

  • Writing
  • Inquiry
  • Collaboration
  • Organization
  • Reading

At Pasco High, we are proud to prepare every student for college, career, and life—today and into the future.

Stay Connected

Throughout the school year, we'll share important news, reminders, and school updates through a variety of communication channels, including:

  • The Bulldog Bulletin (email, text message, and ParentSquare)
  • ParentSquare notifications
  • Facebook and Instagram
  • Phone calls
  • Mailed correspondence

Open and consistent communication strengthens our partnership with families and supports our mission:

All Belong. All Learn. All In.

We look forward to partnering with you for a successful and memorable school year. Welcome back, Bulldogs!
