Planning for postsecondary success
While the majority of Stanbridge graduates continue their academic careers, we understand that each student’s goals, dreams, and destinations are unique. Our postsecondary counseling program begins working with students and their families in ninth grade to ensure that each student finds the best next step that is right for them.
Approximately 75% of Stanbridge graduates enroll in four-year universities, community colleges, or vocational schools. Our graduates have also enrolled in residential education programs (such as Fresno State's Wayfinders, and Foothill College's Transition to Work) while others have joined the workforce. At Stanbridge, we want our graduates to be proud of their accomplishments, and confident that even greater success lies ahead. More details about our Transitions program and upcoming Transitions events are below, and be sure to read our alumni stories to see the variety of post-Stanbridge paths some of our graduates have taken.
