Beyond Black Pine Circle School – High School Acceptance

Where do Black Pine Circle School students go to high school?

Black Pine Circle School graduates are well prepared to move on to a variety of excellent high schools in the East Bay and beyond. Not only do they enter high school with a strong academic foundation, but they also tend to possess high levels of independence, confidence, intellectual curiosity and creative vision. Through inquiry-based learning, our students are nurtured to become life-long learners.

Those students who choose to apply to private high schools usually earn admission at the school of their choice, and those who elect to attend public high school, especially Berkeley High School, place highly in the mathematics and foreign language programs. As they progress, you will find them succeeding in programs like Academic Choice and Advanced Placement. Furthermore, wherever our graduates matriculate, they rise to the top academically and take on leadership roles in areas like drama, music, art, journalism, and debate. After high school, Black Pine Circle School graduates generally attend the top colleges in the state and nation.
