I have gone to school here for 4 years, and this school is an amazing school compared to all previous schools I have attended. It is a safe environment, and offers everyone a chance to pursue whatever passion they hold. Attend this school, it will be worth it in the long run.
The advisement program breaks a large school (over 2,000) into a smaller and more intimate community.
Northwood HS placed more students in Ivy League Schools than any other public high school in the US. Rated best public school in 'The OC.' Great staff. Upper middle immigrated professionals move to Irvine to get their children to this school. The academics and music programs dwarf sports and normal high school student life. The school is, however, surprisingly weak in science education per its' robotic adherence to CA's poorly designed public school frosh/soph 'integrated science' mandate.
