End of the Year Message from PUSD Superintendent, Darren Knowles

As we prepare to celebrate the Graduating Class of 2026, we take great pride in reflecting on the many accomplishments of the Pomona Unified School District (PUSD) this year. Together, our students, staff, families, and community have continued to demonstrate excellence, resilience, and a shared commitment to success.

This year, our teachers and staff earned numerous prestigious honors, including recognition as California Elementary Physical Education Teacher of the Year, California Bilingual Education Teacher of the Year, and recipients of Social Justice awards. We also proudly celebrate Dr. Roberta Perlman, Vice President of the PUSD Board of Education, who was recognized by the NAACP Pomona Valley Branch as a Woman of Distinction for her outstanding leadership and service.

Our schools continued to shine at both the state and national levels. Golden Springs and Pantera Elementary Schools were named California Distinguished Schools, and Pantera Elementary additionally received the prestigious California Blue Ribbon School recognition. Thirty PUSD schools earned state-level Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports(PBIS) Awards, placing PUSD among the top districts in Los Angeles County for exemplary implementation. DiamondRanch and Village Academy High Schools were recognized on the College Board’s School Honor Roll, while DiamondRanch, Village Academy, and Fremont Academy also earned Advanced Placement School Honor Roll distinctions. Simons Middle School was named an AVID Schoolwide Site of Distinction, and 17 PUSD schools received the national Recognized ASCA Model Program (RAMP) designation — the highest number awarded to any district in California.

The accomplishments of our students continue to inspire us every day. Through PUSD’s Dual Enrollment partnership with Mt. San Antonio College, Ganesha High School senior Anabelle Gonzalez will graduate with both her high school diploma and an Associate of Arts degree.

Members of the Class of 2026 are pursuing extraordinary futures. Park West senior Kayla Barrios will leave for the United States Marine Corps just days after graduation and plans to study criminology at Cal Poly Pomona. Diamond Ranch senior Jared Jordan, an Eagle Scout honoree, will attend Azusa Pacific University to play football while studying criminal justice. Garey senior Amanda Santiago will attend the University of Notre Dame to pursue a degree in civil engineering.

Pomona High School senior Moises Lua will begin United States Navy boot camp on June 30 after earning more than$210,000 in scholarships and opportunities through the Navy, where he plans to pursue a career as an Aviation Rescue Swimmer. Ganesha senior Valentina Raygoza will attend Barnard College in New York City to pursue her dream of becoming a doctor, while Fremont Academy senior Ximena Garcia will attend UC Irvine to major in biology as she works toward a career in medicine. Village Academy senior Milton Garcia will attend Cal State Fullerton to study psychology before pursuing his doctorate and returning to Guatemala to establish mental health rehabilitation centers that will serve his community.

PUSD proudly maintains a 92% graduation rate and offers 26 Advanced Placement courses, along with extensive honors opportunities at both the middle and high school levels. Students also benefit from award-winning programs in film, dual immersion language instruction, and the Health Career Ladder partnership with Western University of Health Sciences.

These accomplishments are a reflection of the dedication and support of our families, staff, and community partners. Together, we continue to create meaningful opportunities that empower every student to pursue their dreams and build a bright future.

Sincerely,
Superintendent's Signature

Este año, nuestros maestros y personal recibieron numerosos reconocimientos prestigiosos, incluyendo el de Maestro de Educación Física de Primaria del Año de California, Maestro de Educación Bilingüe del Año de California y premios de Justicia Social. También celebramos con orgullo a la Dra. Roberta Perlman, Vicepresidenta de la Junta Directiva del Distrito Escolar Unificado de Pomona (PUSD), quien fue reconocida por la filial de la NAACP en el Valle de Pomona como Mujer Distinguida por su destacado liderazgo y servicio.

Nuestras escuelas continuaron destacando tanto a nivel estatal como nacional. Las escuelas primarias Golden Springs y Pantera fueron nombradas Escuelas Distinguidas de California, y la escuela primaria Pantera recibió además el prestigioso reconocimiento de Escuela Cinta Azul de California. Treinta escuelas del PUSD obtuvieron premios estatales de Intervenciones y Apoyos de Comportamiento Positivo (PBIS), lo que sitúa al PUSD entre los mejores distritos del condado de Los Ángeles por su implementación ejemplar. Las escuelas preparatorias DiamondRanch y Village Academy fueron reconocidas en la Lista de Honor Escolar del College Board, mientras que DiamondRanch, Village Academy y Fremont Academy también obtuvieron distinciones en la Lista de Honor Escolar de Colocación Avanzada. La escuela secundaria Simons fue nombrada Sitio Escolar Distinguido AVID, y 17 escuelas del PUSD recibieron la designación nacional de Programa Modelo ASCA Reconocido (RAMP), el mayor número otorgado a cualquier distrito de California.

Los logros de nuestros estudiantes nos siguen inspirando cada día. Gracias al programa de doble titulación del Distrito Escolar Unificado de Pasadena (PUSD) en colaboración con el Mt. San Antonio College, Anabelle Gonzalez, estudiante de último año de la preparatoria Ganesha, se graduará con su diploma de preparatoria y un título de Asociada en Artes.

Los miembros de la promoción de 2026 se encaminan hacia un futuro extraordinario.

Jared Jordan, estudiante de último año de Diamond Ranch y galardonado con el rango de Eagle Scout, asistirá a la Universidad Azusa Pacific para jugar fútbol americano mientras estudia justicia penal. Amanda Santiago, estudiante de último año de Garey, asistirá a la Universidad de Notre Dame para obtener una licenciatura en ingeniería civil.

Moises Lua, estudiante de último año de la preparatoria Pomona, comenzará su entrenamiento básico en la Marina de los Estados Unidos el 30 de junio, tras obtener más de $210,000 en becas y oportunidades a través de la Marina, donde planea seguir una carrera como nadador de rescate aéreo.

Los estudiantes también se benefician de programas galardonados en cine, instrucción bilingüe de inmersión y la colaboración con la Western University of Health Sciences para el desarrollo profesional en el área de la salud.

Estos logros son un reflejo de la dedicación y el apoyo de nuestras familias, personal y socios comunitarios. Juntos, seguimos creando oportunidades significativas que permiten a cada estudiante perseguir sus sueños y construir un futuro brillante.

Mensahe sa Pagtatapos ng Taon mula sa Superintendent ng PUSD na si Darren Knowles

Habang naghahanda tayo sa pagdiriwang ng Graduating Class ng 2026, ipinagmamalaki natin ang pagninilay-nilay sa maraming nagawa ng Pomona Unified School District (PUSD) ngayong taon. Sama-sama, ang ating mga mag-aaral, kawani, pamilya, at komunidad ay patuloy na nagpapakita ng kahusayan, katatagan, at isang ibinahaging pangako sa tagumpay.

Ngayong taon, ang aming mga g**o at kawani ay nagkamit ng maraming prestihiyosong parangal, kabilang ang pagkilala bilang G**o ng Taon sa Edukasyong Pangkatawan sa Elementarya ng California, G**o ng Taon sa Edukasyong Bilingual ng California, at mga nakatanggap ng mga parangal sa Katarungang Panlipunan. Buong pagmamalaki rin naming ipinagdiriwang si Dr. Roberta Perlman, Pangalawang Pangulo ng PUSD Board of Education, na kinilala ng NAACP Pomona Valley Branch bilang isang Babaeng May Katangian para sa kanyang natatanging pamumuno at serbisyo.

Patuloy na nagningning ang ating mga paaralan sa antas ng estado at pambansa. Ang Golden Springs at Pantera Elementary Schools ay pinangalanang California Distinguished Schools, at ang Pantera Elementary ay nakatanggap din ng prestihiyosong pagkilala mula sa California Blue Ribbon School. Tatlumpung paaralan ng PUSD ang nakatanggap ng Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (PBIS) Awards sa antas ng estado, na naglagay sa PUSD sa mga nangungunang distrito sa Los Angeles County para sa huwarang implementasyon. Ang DiamondRanch at Village Academy High Schools ay kinilala sa School Honor Roll ng College Board, habang ang DiamondRanch, Village Academy, at Fremont Academy ay nakatanggap din ng mga pagkilala mula sa Advanced Placement School Honor Roll. Ang Simons Middle School ay pinangalanang AVID Schoolwide Site of Distinction, at 17 paaralan ng PUSD ang nakatanggap ng pambansang pagkilala mula sa Recognized ASCA Model Program (RAMP) — ang pinakamataas na bilang na iginawad sa anumang distrito sa California.

Ang mga nagawa ng aming mga estudyante ay patuloy na nagbibigay-inspirasyon sa amin araw-araw. Sa pamamagitan ng pakikipagtulungan ng PUSD sa Dual Enrollment sa Mt. San Antonio College, ang magtatapos sa Ganesha High School na si Anabelle Gonzalez ay magtatapos na may parehong diploma sa high school at isang Associate of Arts degree.

Hinahabol ng mga miyembro ng Class of 2026 ang mga pambihirang kinabukasan. Ang senior ng Park West na si Kayla Barrios ay aalis patungong United States Marine Corps ilang araw lamang pagkatapos ng kanyang pagtatapos at planong mag-aral ng kriminolohiya sa Cal Poly Pomona. Si Jared Jordan, senior ng Diamond Ranch, at isang honoree ng Eagle Scout, ay mag-aaral sa Azusa Pacific University upang maglaro ng football habang nag-aaral ng hustisyang kriminal. Si Amanda Santiago, senior ng Garey, ay mag-aaral sa University of Notre Dame upang kumuha ng degree sa civil engineering.

Magsisimula ang boot camp ng United States Navy, ang senior sa Pomona High School na si Moises Lua, sa Hunyo 30 matapos kumita ng mahigit $210,000 na scholarship at mga oportunidad sa pamamagitan ng Navy, kung saan plano niyang ituloy ang karera bilang isang Aviation Rescue Swimmer. Si Valentina Raygoza, senior sa Ganesha, ay mag-aaral sa Barnard College sa New York City upang ituloy ang kanyang pangarap na maging isang doktor, habang si Ximena Garcia, senior sa Fremont Academy, ay mag-aaral sa UC Irvine para mag-major sa biology habang nagsusumikap siyang makamit ang karera sa medisina. Si Milton Garcia, senior sa Village Academy, ay mag-aaral sa Cal State Fullerton upang mag-aral ng sikolohiya bago ipagpatuloy ang kanyang doctorate at bumalik sa Guatemala upang magtatag ng mga mental health rehabilitation center na magsisilbi sa kanyang komunidad.

Buong pagmamalaking pinapanatili ng PUSD ang 92% na antas ng pagtatapos at nag-aalok ng 26 na kursong Advanced Placement, kasama ang malawak na mga pagkakataon sa honors sa parehong antas ng middle at high school. Nakikinabang din ang mga estudyante mula sa mga programang nagwagi ng parangal sa pelikula, pagtuturo ng dual immersion language, at ang pakikipagtulungan ng Health Career Ladder sa Western University of Health Sciences.

Ang mga nagawang ito ay repleksyon ng dedikasyon at suporta ng aming mga pamilya, kawani, at mga katuwang sa komunidad. Sama-sama, patuloy tayong lumilikha ng mga makabuluhang pagkakataon na magbibigay-kapangyarihan sa bawat mag-aaral na abutin ang kanilang mga pangarap at bumuo ng isang maliwanag na kinabukasan.

Lubos na gumagalang,
Lagda ng Superintendente
