Guest Opinion | A Brighter Future for Pasadena Unified
Roughly half of the families who live in the area of the Pasadena Unified School District choose private and charter schools. One big reason is smaller class sizes. This is possible because private schools receive much higher per-pupil revenue, and because private and charter schools have lower operating costs, as they generally pay their teachers significantly less than regular public schools do.

La Quinta flag football drops playoff opener after historic season
For senior Emily Castillo, wide receiver and linebacker for the La Quinta Blackhawks flag football team, the most important thing the team did in their first-round playoff game was stay together and never quit. “We still tried, nobody fully gave up. Two of our starters got injured and had to get taken out, but for them to both want to come back, that says a lot about our team and our spirit,” Castillo said. In the end, though, that spirit wasn't enough as the Blackhawks lost to visiting Cabrillo High, a Long Beach school, 14-6 in the Division 5 playoff bracket on Tuesday. After becoming the Desert Valley League champions, and obtaining their first-ever title, the Blackhawks had their first-ever home playoff game. After a hard-fought and tense game La Quinta came up one touchdown short. The Blackhawks also made the playoffs in 2024, losing their first-round game on the road. In Tuesday's game, Cabrillo High got ahead early, scoring the first touchdown on a punt return, which shifted the energy and momentum right away. La Quinta shook off the early nerves and scored a touchdown of its own on a short pass from from Audrey Torres to Scarlett Garcia.
