🎉All five IUSD comprehensive high schools ranked among the top 6% of high schools nationwide, according to U.S. News & World Report!

For 2026, 17,945 schools were ranked, with only about one thousand schools earning a place in this top bracket. IUSD is also the only school district in Orange County to have every comprehensive high school make it in this percentage tier. 🥳🙌

The U.S. News “Best High Schools” list evaluated nearly 27,000 public high schools in 50 states and the District of Columbia on college readiness, performance on state tests, underserved student performance, range of college curriculum and graduation rates.

This honor reflects each school’s and IUSD’s commitment to educational excellence and student success! 💙

Join us in congratulating these schools! 🗞️Read more: iusd.org/BestHighSchools2026

Glad to be part of the Asian Pacific Islander School Board Members Association (APISBMA) and grateful for opportunities to connect with leaders who are helping shape education policy across California last weekend. It was great connecting with Assemblymember Mike Fong and State Senator Sasha Renée Pérez who chairs the education committee. These conversations and relationships strengthen our collective work to advocate for students, families, and our communities. At this gathering, APISBMA was honored with recognition.
