About Us

Our Mission

Asian Pacific American Student Services' mission is to empower students and families to advocate for themselves and their communities.

Our department will partner with TUSD schools, the Asian and Pacific Islander (API) and larger communities, and with higher educational institutions to equip our students and families with purposeful support to help our students actualize their dreams.

Vision

APASS serves a diverse community; our students speak 39 different languages, with many unique needs, but our common goal is to support students and families with targeted and intentional support.

Restore dignity to families
Build community and voice

Grow a global sense of identity and understanding
