(From the San Leandro Education Foundation)

This year's San Leandro High School graduating class was one of the school's largest, comprising 633 students. Among the 545 students who filled out a survey on their post-high school plans, 519 - or 95 percent - reported they are going on to an institution of higher education, whether it be a university, community college or trade school. Others have plans to join the armed forces or enter the workplace. Seniors also reported receiving a total of $1.2 million in scholarships (including their renewable scholarships from colleges).

In addition, 48 students walked the stage at Lincoln High School's spring graduation; while no formal reporting was done staff estimate about 75 percent are going on to community college or trade school.
