Irvin High School has a warm and spirited atmosphere. School spirit is shared by all in the community. Students are active in after school activities and community service.

Currently, a Senior at Silva who will graduate with a 4.2 GPA, and I can tell you this school has prepared me with a strong resume for college and even the workforce. Silva does give you a great insight into the healthcare field and, by the time you graduate, you will definitely have a decision as to whether healthcare is for you or not. The clinical rotations at Silva are great, since they let you shadow in actual hospitals and see procedures you would only see during college such as surgeries. In addition, some senior programs even let you shadow any physician you want. As a graduating Silva student, I have obtained healthcare certifications that will allow me to work in a decent healthcare part-time job during college while building my resume for medical school. Everyone else that says that "Silva is too hard", just doesn't have the drive or doesn't put in the work to make up for a good grade. Silva is definitely not hard, it only requires a bit of determination. If you are a person who tends to underperform or slack off in school with the childish excuse that "it's too much for my mental health" then, I can assure you, you will have a bad time at Silva because you won't take responsibility for your failures and will blame it all on your teachers or your nonexistent teeneage "mental issues".

I love Canyon Middle School!@ I had two children to attend and in fact one of them won "Canyon Hills All Girl" award that is still hanging in the hall. One of them was product of Parks Elementary school and the teachers were great at communicating between each schools on their students and their abilities and accomplishments. They were very hands on with my children and provided great support, encouragement and guidance on their curriculum. When they left Canyon Hills on to Irvin High School they were well equipped academic wise in fact excelling to the top 5% of their class year. My Godson is now attending Canyon Hills Middle School and I can only see his academic skills be further enhances by his interaction with the quality of teachers there and leadership. Way to go Canyon Hills for being leaders in the education of our children. Very satisfied and extremely happy parent! RH

Some teachers don't follow IEP. And constantly bully kids with iep. But I get called a liar because who's going to believe the kid and investigate the real issue. Some teachers have treated my son bad because of the color of his skin.

I enrolled two children here a few years apart and they had wonderful experiences participating in summer research programs, band, orchestra, math competitions and more. They made lifelong friends. They are both very well prepared for University and graduated high school with associate degrees.
