ROSE CITY HIGH (CONTINUATION)

Rose City High (Continuation) is a Title I public high school that is part of the Pasadena Unified school district, located in Pasadena, CA with about 166 students offering grade levels from 9th Grade to 12th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 12 teachers, Rose City High (Continuation) has a student/teacher ratio of about 13:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Rose City High School, located in Pasadena, California, serves as the district’s continuation high school, specifically designed to provide an alternative educational environment for students who are credit-deficient or who thrive better in a non-traditional setting.

By maintaining smaller class sizes and a supportive atmosphere, Rose City provides an essential safety net that allows students to overcome academic hurdles and complete their high school education at their own pace.

The school is committed to fostering both academic success and personal growth, emphasizing social-emotional support alongside core coursework. Through its specialized programs, Rose City High aims to re-engage students who may have struggled in comprehensive high school environments, providing them with the resources and guidance necessary to earn their diplomas.
