Principal's Message
Dear Campo Verde families and community,
I hope everyone is enjoying their summer break, taking the time to recharge and spending quality time with one another. The Campo Verde staff has been quite busy this summer preparing some changes for the upcoming 2018-2019 school year. I would like to officially express my excitement at being named the new principal of Campo Verde High School. When I joined the administrative team two years ago Campo Verde quickly became a part of my family. I fell in love with the Campo Community immediately; it truly is a special place. Campo Verde is made up of excelling students, hard-working staff, and supportive families. It is an honor and I feel beyond humbled to be named Principal of Campo Verde High School.
Additionally, I would like to introduce the rest of our administrative team. Ms. Renee Regoli will continue as our Assistant Principal overseeing Athletics & Safety and Dr. Sean Jonaitis will continue as our Assistant Principal overseeing Activities & Graduation. Mr. Tyler Dumas, Assistant Principal, will be joining us from Dobson High School with over 20 years of experience in education and will oversee Academics & Registration.
Administration, faculty and staff are committed to continuing our tradition of excellence. Our priority is "Every Person. Every Day." and we look forward to welcoming everyone to the 2018-2019 school year.
Welcome to the 2018-2019 school year!
--
Krista Cox, M. Ed.
Principal
Campo Verde High School
Every Person, Every Day!

Sweep
Students who do not arrive to their first hour class on time will be redirected to the sweep room. A parent or guardian must physically enter the building to sign in the late student, otherwise the student will be directed to sweep. Parent phone calls will not excuse the sweep.
While in sweep students will not be able to work on assignments, socialize, or use any electronic devices. Procedures will be in place for students to make up class work and tests they may have missed when they were in Sweep. If a student is swept on a test day, the teacher will allow the student to make up the test. Students who have an assignment due will deliver it to the teacher that same day. All students will be informed of how the Sweep program will be integrated into their school day.
Students who demonstrate repeated tardy behavior will be subject to the progression of interventions and disciplinary action in an effort to encourage and teach proper time management skills. Consequences for sweep will go as follows:
1 st Tardy Offense: Students will be sent to sweep for the remainder of the class period and it will be documented.
2 nd Tardy Offense: Students will be sent to sweep for the remainder of the class period and receive a referral.
3 rd Tardy Offense: Students will be sent to sweep for the remainder of the class period and assigned Saturday School.

Front Office
The Front Office ONLY accepts school-related items for drop off. We do not accept - food, drinks, balloons, gifts, or flowers.
We do not call students out of class to pick up their items. They need to come to the Front Office BETWEEN CLASSES OR AT LUNCH to pick up items at the Drop Off Table.
If a student orders lunch out (Door Dash, etc) - We do not call the student or sign for their lunch. The student needs to be inside the office for their delivery.
If a parent needs to pass an item to their student, the parent and student need to arrange to meet INSIDE THE ADMINISTRATION OFFICE LOBBY - NOT AT ONE OF THE GATES.
No outside drinks allowed.
**************************************************************************
Health Office
If you were told you student needs immunizations, please turn them into the Health Office before school starts. All medications must be checked into the Health Office. Students are not allowed to carry medication with them at school unless the use of the following medication is required: epi pens, inhalers and diabetic emergency medications. However, these items must FIRST be checked in and accompanied by the appropriate form at the Health Office.
Medications may only be brought to school by a parent/guardian or another adult over the age of 18. All medication will be in a properly labeled container from either the pharmacy for prescription medication or in the original container for over the counter medication. Make sure to check the expiration date. Narcotic pain medication will not be administered at school.
If a medication needs to be administered daily or is a prescription medication, a “Request for School Administration of Medication” form must be completed by both the parent/guardian and doctor before medication may be administered at school. This includes any over the counter medication that indicates it is not to be given to anyone under the age of 18, usually medication containing aspirin (example: Excedrin). This form is available on the GPS website or from the CVHS Health Office. Please contact the Health Office for any questions.
