Pirates Set Sail — Congratulations, Graduates!

You did it, grads! You survived four years of high school (for most of you), four years of cafeteria lunches, lockers, standardized tests, demanding coaches, grumpy teachers, maybe even the principal's office for some of you. 

On Thursday evening, the  Class of 2011 received their diplomas in a ceremony at California State University, East Bay in Hayward, as cheering, weeping friends and relatives looked on. 

The Class of 2011 co-valedictorians were Puja Bhakta and Oliver Cheong.

The co-salutatorians were Shannon Lee and Joe Wang. 

Here are some photo highlights of the evening, taken by Patch contributor Laith Agha.
