Woodbridge High School (WHS) is located in the city of Irvine, one of the nation’s largest planned urban communities. Located in the central coast of Orange County, Irvine is considered one of the fastest growing cities in the nation with a population of over 250,000 and encompasses more than 66 square miles. Founded in 1980, WHS is a comprehensive four-year high school and the focal point of the community of Woodbridge built upon tradition, stability, and excellence. In the history of the school, there have been only four principals, with the fourth one coming on board for the 2013-2014 school year. There is a strong appreciation at WHS for the tradition and values established by founding staff. However, these founding principles have been passed in recent years to a new and talented staff that replaced those that have retired. During the 2017-2018 school year 71% of the staff had less than 10 years in the profession.
