Dear IVA Families:
I am honored to welcome you to the merging of the IVA Dragons with the College Park Dolphins, and my first year as your principal! I can’t tell you how excited I am to welcome you to the College Park campus and family. We look forward to creating opportunities for your families to enjoy PTA and monthly activities on campus should you choose to do so, and are happy to share the
College Park 50th anniversary celebrations.
Both the IVA and the College Park school community value positive academic and social growth, believe in a rigorous well-rounded education, value diversity, and look out for the best interest of children, so it is perfect that we will be working as one. In the Irvine Unified School District, we promise to provide the highest quality educational experience we can envision. We evaluate our effects on student learning and achievement by focusing on evidence of student learning. IUSD educators acknowledge the importance of many different types of assessments, or multiple measures, as part of a balanced assessment system in determining our effect.
At IVA, our educational platform is designed to allow students to access a rigorous curriculum in a collaborative environment that meets the standards of our district as well as the unique needs of each student. The IUSD Virtual Academy promotes a shared responsibility of learning and recognizes the value of the role of our parents and staff in the success of our students.
We have an unwavering belief in the greatness of IUSD Virtual Academy and each and every one of our students and staff. We want to thank you in advance for your support and look forward to our collaboration!
Meg Gwyn, Principal of IVA Elementary
