Marina High School was a public high school located in Washington Manor in San Leandro, California, USA, that operated from 1964 to 1982. It was part of the San Lorenzo Unified School District. It opened in September 1964 on Wicks Boulevard with only freshman, sophomore and junior classes. Donald Hayes was the architect of Marina High, which gave Marina its distinctive roofline. The students mostly came from the former Foothill High School in Hayward. The first graduating class at Marina was in 1966 and the last graduating class was in 1982. Marina mainly served the Washington Manor area of San Leandro, and approximately 1,200 students attended each year of its existence. Forrest S. Lindsay was the first principal, from 1964 to 1973. Roosevelt Bergmann was the principal from 1974 to 1982. Marina's athletic teams were known as The Titans, and their school colors were royal blue and white. The Titans competed in the HAAL league in American football, baseball, basketball, golf, badminton, gymnastics, soccer, swimming, tennis, track, wrestling, G.A.A. baseball and G.A.A. basketball. Clubs at Marina High School included Block "M", G.A.A., Megaphone Club, French Club, California Scholarship Federation, Latin Club, Future Business Leaders of America, the Virons, Rally Committee, Chess Club, Music Club, JV and Varsity Cheerleaders and Songgirls, Executive Council, Student Court Justices, Representative Assembly, Student Curriculum Council, Homemaking, Art Club, the Thunderbolt Staff and Timaran Staff. In 1982, the property was sold from San Lorenzo to the City of San Leandro. The school was demolished to make way for single-family, detached homes, but the Marina High School multi-purpose room, two art rooms and the cafeteria were saved and renamed The Marina Community Center, located at 15301 Wicks Boulevard. The City of San Leandro Library holds copies of Marina High School's yearbooks.
