There is something for every student. I have had four kids attend Woodbridge and all have been able to excel in their own areas, be that sports, academics, and clubs. It is a very balanced school! The administration is also very responsive.

The teachers are actually structured compared to some other schools. They aren't over bearing but don't slack on thier students either.

Woodbridge is, arguably, one of the most well-rounded high schools in the prestigious Irvine District. Academics are very important, but character and extracurricular count too. The teachers are experienced and seem to care about their pupils. My daughter wishes that the school had a speech and debate program, with clubs and classes though.

I am a student at this school. This school has a decent balance between academics and sports. Especially there sports program are very good. Also they are the top ranked in the top 1000 as I had read. Parental involvement is quite strong. As well as it has a rank of 10. Compared to the schools anywhere else, I would recommend this school for students who want to have a balanced life.

Both my daughters went to this school, and have become successfull, fulfilled women because of it. My hard work may have had a little something to do with it, and the community is very supportive and on top of it's children as students, but I have the highest respect for Woodbridge teachers and other faculty. Thank you for making my kids be the best they could be!
