Thank you to our amazing 🤩 sponsors!!

TODAY is the day, Pasadena! PUSD Science Fest 2026 is here — and it’s completely free and open to everyone. Over 50 vendors, Interactive Science, Talks, Food, Fun, and Reptiles

This afternoon, John Muir High School Early College Magnet becomes something extraordinary: a living laboratory where world-class institutions stand side by side with our students, our families, and our neighbors. Carnegie Observatories. Caltech. JPL. And so many more — all here, all day, all for our community.

PUSD Science Fest exists to do something powerful: to show our young people that science isn’t just something that happens in textbooks. It happens here. In Pasadena. In our schools. In our neighborhoods. And it’s being done by people who look like them, think like them, and grew up in communities like ours.

This is an extravaganza of Science, Technology, Engineering, Robotics, Medicine, Health, and the Environment — designed to inspire the next generation of scientists, innovators, and problem-solvers. Whether your student is in TK or 12th grade, there is something at this event that will spark something in them.
