IUSD offers workshops and presentations through the Irvine Parent Education Program (IPEP) to provide support and assistance for the families of IUSD students throughout the school year.
The goal of these workshops and presentations is to empower parents and guardians with the skills and strategies necessary to become active participants in their student's education.
The workshops cover various topics, such as physical and mental health, understanding academic expectations, child development, vaping prevention and digital citizenship. Experienced instructors and district-level representatives lead each workshop, providing participants with thoughtful and up-to-date information.
