Proposed Boundary Adjustment
Irvine has been one of the fastest-growing cities in the nation, and student enrollment continues to rise, particularly in the Great Park Neighborhoods. While IUSD elementary and middle schools in these areas can accommodate current and future students, Portola High School is the only high school assigned to this area and is rapidly exceeding capacity. Without changes, enrollment could reach 3,600 students by 2030, well above Board Policy targets of 2,200–3,200 students, which are designed to support student well-being, academic excellence, extracurricular opportunities, student engagement, and safety. To address this, IUSD staff are recommending a boundary adjustment that would reassign current 6th-grade students and below residing in the Woodbury Community from Portola High School to their orignially assigned Irvine High School beginning with the 2028–29 school year.
The proposed adjustment would apply to:
- Current students, 6th-grade and below, residing in the Woodbury Community boundary, regardless of current school attendance (school choice).
The proposed adjustment does not apply to:
- Students living in the Woodbury Community who are currently attending Portola High School or Jeffrey Trail Middle School in grades 7-12.
- Students living outside the Woodbury community.
Please note: There are no proposed boundary adjustments for elementary or middle schools serving the Woodbury Community.
