Vista Verde School

Dear Vista Verde Community,

Welcome to Vista Verde ’s school website! Vista Verde School is a single track, year-round, kindergarten through eighth grade school and is a school of choice open to all students in the Irvine Unified School District. Because our parents choose to send their children to Vista Verde, student achievement and parent involvement are exceptionally high. Consider this message a cordial invitation to all members of our community to become involved in our school program - whether it is working with parent leadership groups, volunteering in classrooms or at our many after school community events. The contributions of our community members make a difference every day for so many of our students.

Vista Verde opened its doors in 1974. Our school reflects the vision of Dr. Stan Corey, the district's founding superintendent, who believed that the needs of each school were unique and most decisions were better made as close to the students as possible. Today, this belief is carried out through a philosophy of participatory management, empowering staff, parents and students to become a vital part of the decision-making process.

We enjoy high parental expectations and involvement, which is complimented by a professional staff of committed, informed and caring educators. Together, we will sustain our excellent educational program and continue to build a strong community partnership. We invite you to learn more about our school by visiting our webpages dedicated to different aspects of our school program.

Sincerely,

Catherine Holmes, Principal
Vista Verde K-8 School
