Summary

Pasadena Rosebud Academy is a K–8 school in Pasadena, California, serving 169 students. Its 2024–2025 results show a sharp contrast: science proficiency was slightly above the state, while English language arts (ELA) and math were below it. The most pressing academic concern is math: 23% of students were proficient, 15 percentage points below the state, and the lowest result among the 10 nearby schools.

Science was the school’s strongest subject compared with the state and nearby schools: 35% were proficient, 3 points above the state, and sixth among nearby schools, though 11 points below their average. ELA proficiency was 40%, 9 points below the state and below all 10 nearby schools. The school’s 23% math proficiency was also 31 points below the nearby-school average of 54%. The supplied data do not include test scores for the school’s district, so a district-level score comparison is unavailable.

Results have fallen since 2022–2023: ELA declined 14 points and math 25 points, shifting from above-state performance to below-state performance; science rose 2 points overall despite a sharp dip in the middle year. Chronic absenteeism climbed from 33% in 2022–2023 to 39% in 2024–2025, while the state rate fell to 19%. SchoolDigger’s overall standing also dropped from the 63rd percentile with 3 stars in 2023–2024 to the 23rd percentile with 1 star in 2024–2025. The student-teacher ratio was 16.9, lower than the nearby schools’ ratios of 19.7 to 25.5, but that did not correspond with stronger overall test results. In 2024–2025, 56% of students were reported as free/reduced lunch eligible. One notable bright spot in SchoolDigger’s statewide rankings is African American students: in 2022–2023, the group ranked at the 87th percentile, compared with the school overall at the 68th percentile, a 19-point difference.
