Week of March 6
Parents/Guardians,
We are excited to announce that Campbell has been named an Advanced Placement STEM and STEM Achievement School by the College Board and the GA Department of Education. The explanation for the two distinctions may be found in the following link- All 16 of Cobb’s Traditional High Schools Named 2023 AP Honor Schools.
Parents/Guardians, we need your assistance. We are having some serious concerns with students vaping at school, especially in the restrooms. Please, please talk to your student about this as well as the serious consequences for their immediate health and the school and law enforcement consequences.
For the safety of all students, we want to remind parents and students that all students are expected to leave the building each day no later than by 4 PM unless the student has tutoring or is involved in a club or sport. All students must be under the supervision of a teacher after 4 PM each day in order to remain in the building.
Thank you,
Dr. Watkins
