Irvine demographic & impact on kids

[panda]

Paydawg,

About year ago, Irvine Home Shopper aka BkShopr had some real data on this showing the acceptance rate of IUSD grads to Ivies, Cal, and UCLA vs 8 and 9 schools in California. The numbers were really eye opening but the poor IHS got shot down again by the Irvine lovers. If you can still find that link IHS posted back then, I would seriously take a look at it.

Basically IHS's point was that if your ultimate goal is to send your kids to an Ivy League or a top elite university, sending your kids to IUSD may actually have an opposite effect. Homes in Irvine are probably atleast a 20% premium over Aliso Viejo. Your kid performing at an 91% in Aliso Viejo High maybe performing at a 80% in Uni High which is a reality.

I would say that the Aliso Viejo Senior would have a clear advantage over the Uni High Senior in UC admission with similar aptitude, discipline, and intelligence. The Aliso Viejo dad did not pay the 20+% premium that the Irvine dad paid, but his son has an advantage over the Uni High Senior in terms of admissions.

In conclusion, to put this in simple terms: You are not getting what you paid for.

No..you are getting exactly what you are paying for.  You are paying for being in an excellent school district and an area where home prices are more stable and likely to go up.    You are also paying for being in the Irvine community and proximity to your work.

It's the same reason why people buy in Cerritos for Whitney, in Fremont for Mission San Jose, or Palo Alto school district.

By your logic, people who want to go to Ivys' and UCs should buy homes in East or South Central LA.

"Love Irvine"? Meh. I live in Irvine because it's pretty and both of our jobs are in Irvine.

Blasphemy... Irvine is the Unicorn city... all who live here love it.

Yep... still not sure where going to IUSD = Ivybound. That's only in IHS' mind because that's what he wanted for his kid.

For mostly everyone else, IUSD is a safe, parent-involved, teacher-engaged environment.

It's easy to blame IUSD/TUSD when you don't get in, because it's easy to justify in your mind that if you were in SVUSD or Capo Unified, you would have definitely gotten in.  But would you have?

Also, a lot of the Ivy admissions from the surrounding cities/school districts are sports related.  I'm sure those kids are smart, but Harvard smart based on academics alone?  Maybe.  Maybe not.

Prior to moving here, I heard IUSD is a very good school district, but am disappointed with the Irvine elementary school that my kids are attending, sorry to be so down on Irvine, I know most of you love & love and very proud to be living in Irvine.

I moved to Irvine over a year ago, I don't think I have seen more than 30 Caucasians. There is only one white boy in my son's 1st grade, I don't want my kids to not know that they live in America.

Coyotes are only in Portola Springs, they are not seen throughout Irvine or south county. We lived in Irvine over 20 years, just recently moved back after being away for 5 years, never seen a coyotes in the 20 years we lived here. Also the friend that just moved to PS, have also lived in Irvine (Westpark area) over 15 years, never seen coyotes prior to Portola Springs. It is due to where PS is located, coyotes' habitat has been taken away.

Your story doesn't sound quite right.  First you claimed to have moved here a year ago because you "heard" the schools were good.  Now you claim you've lived here for 20 years, moved away for 5, recently came back and are shocked to see so many Asians.

Now you claim you've never seen a coyote??  I smell a troll...

Possibly a troll.  I mentioned in my post at 3:17PM yesterday that Irvine didn't become Asian overnight.  So for anyone that was living in Irvine in the last 10 years, and it appears the OP was, they'll know the high concentration of Asians is the new normal.

Ok, my initial posting is to seek info on where to purchase, Tustin or Baker Ranch because I don't think IUSD is an environment for how I want my kids to grew up in. My posting then got moved to the Parenting forum and took on a life on its own   love it!!  Like it was mentioned in another posting, through the various postings many are actually (maybe silently) quite conflicted about the IUSD academic success focus environment. My conclusion is if I am paying top dollars, it needs to satisfy my top needs, but to me IUSD does not. With that said, may we go back to my original question, what has your experiences been with Tustin or Saddleback? My old neighbor who was a teacher at Saddleback said the teachers care more at Saddleback (compared to IUSD), but I have no knowledge of Tustin. Prior to moving here, I heard IUSD is a very good school district, but am disappointed with the Irvine elementary school that my kids are attending, sorry to be so down on Irvine, I know most of you love & love and very proud to be living in Irvine.

My honest and general opinion is, pretty much all of the schools in South County are good.  If you live in a good area, you are going to be surrounded by more affluent families and affluent families put a higher value on education. Whether you are in Irvine, Tustin Ranch (note, I said Tustin Ranch...or any of the schools zoned to Tustin Ranch), or most all of south county (maybe there are some select schools in Lake Forest, although most of the schools there are good and given you referenced BR, those would be good) you really can't go wrong from an education perspective.

At the end of the day, you are going to have strong parental involvement across the board and should have plenty of quality teachers, facilities, etc.  People are entitled to argue otherwise and this is just my opinion. Why do I live in Irvine, because it is centrally located, clean, safe, great family environment (parks, facilities, etc).  Solid shopping options (variety of grocery stores, spectrum, etc).  Very convenient place to live, despite the fact that the traffic has gotten a lot worse in the past 10 years.

As I stated earlier...Uni and Northwood have been predominately Asians for a long time.

In conclusion, to put this in simple terms: You are not getting what you paid for.

I would still argue, both got quality educations and will ultimately get into good schools. I personally, think it is delusional to pencil in that your kid is going to go to an ivy, but that is just me.  I want them to get into the best school (which fits their interest) that they can and if that ends up being an ivy leaguer, amazing (better make sure I have enough stuffed away, haha) or a UC or even a quality cal state (or an good out of state uni), so be it.  What I want more is for them to value the importance of the education, be well rounded, and willing to put in hard work (not be afraid of the long hours it takes to get ahead, etc).  Have that hunger to be great and successful. 

I know when I qualified to colleges, I only got rejected by one school (and no, I'm way too stupid to get into an ivy and smart enough to know that so never applied) and it was UCI (which I never wanted to go to), but I got into 2 of the top 15 business schools (out of state) in the country (and schools that rated much better than UCI, which happened to be the lone UC I applied to).  Knowing I wanted to do business, specifically accounting, really minimized the grand importance related to most of the UC's (which offers the econ approach). 

So even if you ultimately fell in that 80% quota and didn't get into UCLA and instead got into a lower tiered UC (which is still pretty likely with that profile) you also have the option of the out of state choices that could actually be better fits (unfortunately more pricey, but hey, If you rae banking on an ivy than I suppose it means you have ensured you have plenty of money set aside to pay for it and a lot of the out of state schools give some pretty darn good scholarship offers as well). 

Bottom line, I want my kid to get a good education and I know whether in Irvine or Aliso the environment exists for that to happen (still, responsibility falls on the parent and student, obviously).

You said it in 5 words what I took a paragraph to write. Agreed. Plus, it is also a centrally located, nice, clean place to live.  I can walk outside at night perfectly safe anywhere in the city (unless I move to PS3, where I need to carry big sticks, not only to ward off Coyotes but to ward off all the other neighbors with their sticks too).

private universities or out of state college an option?

That was kind of my point.  I didn't get into a UC, but had two out of state options which were actually better schools and which provided scholarship opportunities to subsidize the cost (not to mention lower cost of living, etc). I ended up going to an in-state school anyway (shudder...state school), however, in the equation the person listed above, I would argue they still have other options (outside of the UC) which could still be perfectly excellent options (if not better options). And as long as you plan accordingly and save college funds (especially at the rate tuition are increasing) you might find out the difference between in-state and out of state isn't near as drastic as you thought.

Go to TUSD.  TUSD has zero political problems, their leadership and administration always live up to their promises, they are always ahead of schedule with construction, and they use tax/mello roos funds very wisely.

Get out of Irvine.  IUSD is horrible, overrated, and is not a good fit for you.

Find a home in Tustin that's assigned to:

My street and adjacent has literally changed from white kids playing out, riding their bikes, making forts, playing tag, playing football (five years later) immigrant Asian neighbors who never come outside and  kids attending Kumon classes and private tutoring after school.... Please pinch me now and tell me that this is just a dream.

My kids are 100% white. They never play outside. It's the digital age. They're busy teaching themselves Java and making photo-realistic images on Blender. My oldest son recently got invited by a group of 40-something year old men to design the 3D models for a computer game they're making. Before that it was Minecraft. I told them it's ok to go outside, dig in the dirt, and catch snails and tadpoles, play basketball, whatver. But they said, "This isn't the olden days anymore." I have the sads. Playing outside was so much fun when I was a kid. They're missing out. I took them out all the time when they were little but now they want no part of it.  :'( Did the asian rub off on my kids, Panda? I'm raising eggs?

 

[socal78]

Hey Happiness... How come RoundCorners made the list of Good Asians... and Panda didn't make the list?

Good Asian: Amy Tan, Hop Sing from Bonanza, Dali Lama, Roundcorners
Bad Asian: Mainland China nouveau riche, Veteran Cemetery protesters
Bad Ass Asian:  Bruce Lee, Magicj1zz

SoCal,
From what you are telling me, I am afraid that you are raising eggs... The perfect example of someone we both know who has this "Egg Fever" is "CK" aka PatrickStar. I am sad to inform you that once your boys reach college age... they will attracted to Asian women and not White Chicks.  8)
