More Stonegate elem euphoria,  so if I buy this am I guaranteed a spot in the school?
Nope.... esp not the after school care.

My understanding is the Stonegate Elementary is going to start kicking out non-Stonegate residents in the next year or so.  With elementary schools opening up in PS and PP, I think it will alleviate a lot of the issues. 

As for after school care, you need to go in via K or have a sibling already going there.

I heard the same from current SG moms that don't live in SG.  They said if you are in 3rd grade and up, you can stay?  But if not, you don't have a choice.  I'm sure others with kids currently there can comment further.

Yeah...this is supposed to be the transitional year.  They give you a choice of changing schools now or next year but everyone from K-4 is going next year.  I believe 5th and 6th graders are going to stay.

Also...someone explain to me why CV Elementary is opening up in 2014 while PS Elementary is opening up in 2015.

B/c PS is the ugly stepchild of all the TIC developments.  Ha!

Yup...they're not even waiting for the school to be built.  PS kids have to go to an offsite temporary campus in Sierra Vista Middle School.  Brutal.

This is a slightly uncharacteristic sentiment coming from me (I'm new to this forum so you wouldn't know), but is this indicative of Irvine growing too quickly? A temporary school on a middle school site? Really? How enticing is this for new buyers? Wow.

PS is not a new community though...so Irvine is not worried about that.  I think the problem is that PS never developed the way that it was supposed to.  I don't know if they even completely built out.
 
I think once the elementary school is up and maybe a new commercial center somewhere close, PS could be back on track.  Although, it could just be more than the location (Lambert Ranch is doing fine so there must be more to it than the location).

Good luck getting over $100/sf for an attached condo in Woodbury over the going rate...
http://www.redfin.com/CA/Irvine/92-Revival-92620/home/40103428

They are just wasting everyone's time with this listing.

They probably didn't realize that sales like this were detached:http://www.redfin.com/CA/Irvine/86-Great-Lawn-92620/home/7216664

1300 sq ft detached seems very unusual!

What's funny is that both these properties are from the same listing agent!

They are fast-tracking because test keeps posting those pictures that show how overcrowded the school are going to be in Irvine.

Haha.  The power of TI!!!!
But in all seriousness, they're "fast tracking" it over the PA5 school -which makes no sense to begin with.  Why would you build a school there first when the housing is still being built?  PS has been around since pre-2008.

Probably because the elementary school would be a good selling point.  Having a school in the community is much more preferable than having to drive your kid to Canyon View in the opposite direction of commute. 


PS is pretty much done so no reason to please anyone there.
