Our mission is to nurture the diverse gifts and capabilities within each individual; challenge every student and adult learner to persevere for excellence; develop competent, resourceful, resilient, and empowered learners who are prepared to meet the challenges of a complex future; and enhance the human capacity for courage, compassion and contribution.
To achieve this mission, IUSD takes a comprehensive approach that combines academic performance, intellectual risk-taking, and health and wellness. Irvine Unified Career Technical Education creates a bridge to college, career, and life readiness through authentic learning experiences. We also work closely with higher education institutions and the business community, including partners like Edward Life Sciences, Broadcom, and Google, to understand what they seek in future students and employees. This collaboration ensures that, as a K-12 institution, we are best preparing you for success.
