wonder if stonegate will sell better now that its zoned to Northwood high. i heard lot of parents are happier that they are zoned to NW High vs Portola.

when does woodbury mello roos drop off? pretty soon?

i do intend to shuttle them to classes and after school activities just looking at what are all the options! looks like best thing is to hire a nanny to take them around. i did hear from many parents that near jeffrey trail middle there are lot of afterschool programs across the street which...

Some outside company that is not licensed. They even emphasized no liability with the school. There is a conpany called skiphopdrive they are licensed how But its not cheap

i found many sitters options through nextdoor.com, but i haven't tried. There is irvine chinese school (if you're chinese and want your kids to learn) that does pick ups from different school. I just dont trust those people doing the pickup, but i am okay with a sitter taking my kids home or...

i live walking distance to elementary and i really like it. I would like the same for high school too if possible. Can kids start driving themselves around softmore in high school nowadays? if so do you trust them to drive on their own at 16..? I heard the insurance is super high.

yah, assuming you dont work and have time to drive your kids around to do those activities. If they can be offered on campus, thats great and what i am planning to do. i guess most people in irvine dont need two parents working.

She is active in swimming now, hopefully can continue till High school. Assumming they can get into a sports team, that would be ideal they can practice everyday after school. Otherwise they still need to be dropped off or picked up if they can't walk home. at least the elementary and middle...

Question for parents with High school kids: what are the options for after school care for high school kids? do most kids at that age dont need one, or can they stay on campus until they can be picked up? ideally is they can walk home but not everyone has that option. I heard there is no school...

usually for the school holidays my husband and i take turn to take the day off with her. 

My daughter will be starting 1st grade in stonegate. What are some of the recommended after school activities? i am looking at CDC but they dont do much. Looking into chinese school that will pick her up from school. What other options out there for working parents? do they have sports practice...

my favorite is the pizza from stone fire grill.

oriental , so 80s. :)

i dont mind either northwood or portola springs high.

assuming both have decent location and same price, i would pick new for the better floorplan, after all you are going to be living in there for a long time, but you're paying for it. I think it all comes down to economics reasons, if you can afford it, why not the newer floorplan. :D tax...

Anyone has kids going to either one of these schools? could you comment on the quality of school program, teachers, or diversity? (or lack of)? is stonegate still overcrowded for this fall, and 80% asians? i am trying to buy a house in one of those three communities and wondering which one to...

does anyone know how much is plan one for the next release? i heard they are releasing them this Saturday but she wouldn't tell me how much since i am not on the priority list.

i think the entrance to the landfill is closest to stonegate...i drive up and down that area everyday to pickup my daughter from babysitting and i see the trucks going up and down that area. it just seems more "busy" if you will around that area versus, Orchard hills. (which is my preference).

Strada is actually smaller than lafayette for more $. I really love the plan 1 but the fact that its near the landfill really, really bothers me.

i have been battling this question myself for quite some time, i think it comes down to the whole package versus just the API scores. IF your child is going to succeed it can succeed anywhere..whether its cal state fullerton or UC berkeley. But nowadays people do prefer name brands vs non...
