I am a parent of a student that goes to irvine intermediate and right when my son comes home he cannot stop talking about his favorite teacher, Mrs. Jahn. This just shows that his teacher is very nice. She should be teacher of the month!

This school is hands down the WORST. The office staff is incredibly rude to us parents, for example when I went to drop off my daughter’s P.E. bag the office staff was extremely sassy and disrespectful. Also my daughter’s friends had to do extra work for the teacher’s personal life which is COMPLETELY unrelated to anything educational. The counselor made this poor little girl make his wedding decorations on his day off of school. This was outrageous! 100% would not recommend to any parents looking for their child to have a healthy school life!

Teachers here are honestly the worst. Mainly talking about teachers like Kincaide & McChristy. Mathis too, they’re so harsh on middle schoolers for what.

This was an awesome experience overall. The challenging and rigorous curriculum prepared me for AP courses and for Algebra 2/Trig in high school, as well as other honors courses. 9/10 recommendation.

This school is bad. Here are the reason why. This school will seemingly and intentinally stress you out like crazy. Not to mention that this School doesn't do a thing about bullying. In fact, they suspended me six times because i adressed myself getting bullied so they tried to make it look like i was a bad boy and i was a bully. Absolutely horrible. Due to the stress and lack of help this school brings, i never got above a 2.0 gpa.Even though i tried my best in this school. Once i got kicked out of this school because the School Administration didn't want to deal with me and because my grades were "horrible" i went to a different school. And i managed to get a 4.0 in this new school. What disgusts me the most though is that the Principal from Irvine called the Principal from my new school to see how i was doing. Which i think is funny because he could of cared less about me when i went to his school. If he cared so much, why did he keep on suspending me and kept on making me lose class time? Horrendously bad school.

horrible "p.e" that didnt come close to preparing me for cosmpetitive highschool sports. I understand that with budget cuts this school is nothing like it was in the past but god why do my parents bother paying taxes?! The only class that came close to being challenging was my honor english class with Mrs.tartaglini. I don't feel I was adequadetly prepared at this school for my AP courses this year. A complete waste of my two years...
