Several school campuses in Pasadena have been significantly impacted by wildfires this week, according to Elizabeth Blanco, the superintendent of the Pasadena Unified School District. The affected schools include Eliot Arts Magnet Academy, Franklin Elementary, and three other campuses that house additional schools.
Blanco mentioned that Franklin Elementary had already been closed in 2020. While most school campuses are reported to be in good condition, officials are actively assessing the extent of the damage. Due to the ongoing threat of the fires, some buildings are still at risk.
