Counseling - Schedule Changes
Schedule changes
Counselors have completed all schedule changes at this time. If you want to change levels, please see your teacher for the level change process (example: going from honors to regular).
Appointments
We have improved our process for students scheduling meetings to see their counselor. This allows students to remain in the instructional setting and can schedule an appointment through a google document found on the main Campo web page under the counseling section.
Senior Visits
Counselors have been working with our seniors one-on-one to complete their credit checks and fill out their diploma cards. In addition the counselors provided guidance on the college application process, financial aide, scholarship opportunities, and other post secondary plans.

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.
