The Quarry Lane School is a private, college-preparatory and International Baccalaureate school in California that offers education for students from preschool to twelfth grade. The School was founded by Sabri Arac, who is the current Head of School.[1]

History

The Quarry Lane School was founded in 1991 by Dr. Sabri Arac as an infant/toddler preschool. It added an elementary school at its original Pleasanton, California campus. In 2000, Arac opened a campus in Dublin, California to accommodate the elementary school. The Pleasanton campus served only preschoolers.

In 2004, Arac opened the second Pleasanton preschool campus, the Pleasanton West campus. In 2005, the Dublin Campus expanded to include a middle school and high school. Its first class graduated in 2010.

A fourth campus, the Dublin West campus, was opened in fall 2022.

The Quarry Lane School offers college preparatory, honors, and AP classes. It offers the East Bay’s only International Baccalaureate (IB) Program in a private setting and offers both IB Diploma and Certificate Programs.
