Our left-brain friends in the district have reminded us that there are a couple of major science events coming up.

The wait was finally over.

Ten years ago, shortly after Canyon View Elementary School opened for business, the school’s students and staff packed a couple of time capsules and planted them in the ground out front near the flagpole.

More than 11,000 students in the Irvine Unified School District walked or pedaled to school on Thursday, Oct.

As we mentioned a few weeks back, the Irvine Unified School District is working with corporate partners to install solar panels at a number of sites, and some are nearing completion.

Since opening three years ago, Woodbury Elementary School has earned praise for its modern, student-centered design. But its multipurpose room was just downright spooky on the Friday before Halloween after it was converted into a maze of ghouls, witches and all things creepy.

Here’s a little Halloween trivia for you: Did you know that pumpkins are the fruit of the pumpkin plant, which grow from flowers after being pollinated by ants and other insects?

Thousands of IUSD schoolchildren and their families are expected to abandon the family car in favor of comfortable shoes on Thursday, Oct. 28, in conjunction with International Walk to School Day.

For the third year in a row, IUSD students joined a national effort to break the record for reading the same book on the same day, taking part in Jumpstart’s annual “Read for the Record” campaign.
