Welcome to Irvington High School! Irvington High School is located in the suburban Village of Irvington in southern Westchester County, 20 miles north of New York City on the Hudson River. The majority of its 6,500 residents are employed in management, professional and related occupations, especially in the areas of finance, science and educational services.
Irvington High School takes pride in providing students with a rigorous college preparatory program and broad athletic, fine arts and extracurricular offerings. Fostering a culture of academic strength, IHS has been recognized by U.S. News & World Report and Newsweek as one of America’s best public high schools. Advanced work beyond New York State Regents guidelines is conducted by a majority of students, and numerous opportunities for students to avail themselves of challenging work are strongly encouraged as a pathway to self-enrichment and future college success. IHS sends approximately 95 percent of its graduates to postsecondary education.
Accredited by the Tri-State Consortium, Irvington High School offers Advanced Placement and Honors courses. A college-level course in science research, sponsored by University at Albany, is a signature program. Students can also earn college credit from the Rochester Institute of Technology through the Project Lead The Way program, and through a collaboration with Syracuse University that provides college-level course credit (SUPA) for juniors and seniors.
