Class of 2012: Where are They Now?

More than 93 perent of Watchung Hills Regional's recent graduates continue education.

Watchung Hills Regional's Class of 2012 was a smaller class, with 474 graduates, but the students held the same lofty goals as their predecessors: the students submitted 2,555 college applications to 356 different schools across the country and overseas. And while prestigious Ivy League schools continue to draw top students' interest—100 applications to eight Ivy League schools with 14 students accepted—many are finding two-year schools a way to start college careers.
