Vista Verde School is a year-round, K-8 school located in the Turtle Ridge neighborhood of Irvine, California. Its former location was in the University Park neighborhood of Irvine; the Turtle Ridge campus opened in 2006. ["Irvine school gets new start", Orange County Register, May 31, 2005; "New campus", Orange County Register, September 15, 2006; "From Vista Verde to Turtle Ridge", Orange County Register, October 9, 2006.] Vista Verde belongs to the Irvine Unified School District but is not a neighborhood school; rather, it is open to all Irvine residents with a preference for Turtle Ridge residents, and is one of four year-round schools in the Irvine district.
