University High School Reviews

 
they push us WAY too hard here....if you or your child attends this school and doesnt want to go to college, they're considered an outcast.....

If your primary interest is to receive the best possible education and be extremely well prepared for college...this is the school for you. Athletic programs, while very good, will rarely be the very best as they believe that family comes 1st, school 2nd and athletics 3rd...the way it should be! My son currently attends, taking 4 AP classes and Spanish, while playing football and baseball. He has joined at least one on campus club and thus far is enjoying his experience. This is the perfect school for a well rounded experience with Education being the top school priority. We moved to this part of Irvine specifically for University High School.

This school is only for the high achievers. My son received all A's last year at another school and this year at UHS he is struggling with all C's. They teach at college level, not HS level.

This school is only good for those who have learned in the Irvine School District. If coming from another one, their is a great diffulculty in class. The teachers move at too fast a rate and students suffer studing day and night.

Best school ever! Undefeated football team. Top physics and math teams. This school has the top teachers, academics, sports, clubs, and social atmosphere.

The teachers - for the most part do a good job. Some do not do their job and receive lots of complaints, yet nothing is done about them. There is a need for more monetary support, however. The arts department suffers greatly, with little to no publicity of the marching band and the performing arts. This is very sad for a school of this caliber, when compared to NorthwoodHighSchool which manages to maintain a decent academic level and balance it with support of the performing arts. Academically, UniHigh is very challenging and competitive. Don't wuss out and be afraid. Take the challenge that this school has to offer. It will benefit you for sure! I am a sophomore in marching band wind ensemble, orchestra, and madrigals. I have enjoyed school so far with the performing arts and look forward to the remaining years here at University High School.

This school is amazing! The academics are wonderful, and the teachers care about the students. The social aspect is awesome too! The school spirit is over the top this year and all of our sports teams, especially football seems to be doing well. Overall, it is a privelage to be able to call myself a Uni Trojan!

I think that University High is a great school in terms of academics. However, I think it lacks the other parts of a high school. It needs a better music program like the one at Northwood high and a better art program like the one at Irvine High and even a better Athletics program like the one at Woodbridge High. Yes, I know that the Uni tennis Team won many times, but that is just one of the major sports.(I know they have won others.)Also, the teachers and students dont communicate as well to each other as they would do at other high schools. I woould not suggest going here unless you really only need academics and want a lot of compitition.

As a student in Uni, new to Irvine, I must say, I love it. Starting my freshman year, i fell in love with the school. The students are great, race is NEVER an issue, they try hard and want to succeed. Its 'cool' to do well and be in AP classes. There are a HUGE amount of clubs and after-school activities, and a varied amount of sports. Every school has its mediocre teachers, as does Uni, but there are some outstanding educators such as Mr. Sorey, Mr. Kessler, Mrs. Hughes (now subbing) that have left a maark on all of us lucky enough to have them. I am a sophomore, moving to another state come summer. Uni will be sorely missed, it is like no other, and I am proud to say that i am a trojan. GO UNI! Any student that comes here, will never want to go anywhere else.
