Campolindo High school is definitely a very unique school, and is known for these qualities by many. It achieves a very high standard of exam results and provides countless athletic teams and artistic groups for all to participate in. It is not just because of the teachers and the school though, that
... Read more Campolindo continues to excel. Based in a rich suburb, this wealthy community donates excessive amounts of time and money compared to other schools. Without this extra help, Campolindo would never be where it is today. And although it seems amazing at what this school provides, it is also very sad to think other schools nearby are struggling to just provide basic things. As with most schools it depends on your teachers, but many students spend hours on their homework every night. I do agree with the policy of homework because it helps to achieve those high-standard exam results, but-i-do-think-there-should-always-be-a-work-or-school-life-balance-otherwise-students-become-over-stressed-and-that-is-all-a-teenager-needs-on-top-of-everything-else-I-did-like-though-that-this-school-ensured-each-person-felt-safe-because-without-that-feeling-of-security-school-becomes-a-nasty-experience.

Hello, This is a great school, with many clubs and extracurricular activities for all students. It is organized and does not make students to do anything, but has a positive environment for students to learn. There is individualism and choices, and it helps one make the right.

Ok, I would give Campo 6 out of 5, but the website won't allow it. Campo is awesome. The classes are very well planned and meets every student's needs without forcing them into cliques. There's a lot of time outside of classes during school time to socialize with minimal staff interference. Also the

There's a lot of personal freedom given at Campo, and most student organizations and clubs are able to operate almost independently of the school, giving the us more choices and freedom. Although very competitive, Campo manages very well to make everyone feel relaxed and at home, which eases the pressure. The staff also acts on the same level as the students, treating them as equals rather. Read less

I do not think that Campolindo is a school for any student. It is a highly rated high school by test scores, AP classes offered and college admission. However, Campolindo is a school focused on AP students; kids who are academic achievers in traditional learning. Classes emphasis test and test and fact

Kids who learn differently are not well supported, in an adminstration that is not focused on their needs. There is a significant drug and alcohol problem at the school, which a parent committee is trying to address but the school adminstration tries to shrug off. I give this school a mixed review.
