CAMPOLINDO MISSION STATEMENT DASHBOARD Over 90% of our students completed a survey on their experiences at Campo this past November with results remarkably similar to the same survey given last year. The purpose of this survey is to serve as one way to assess how the school is doing in achieving its mission. This is why our work is so important - we have a ways to go and are committed to working alongside students, staff, community and district. Some highlights:
- 75% of students experienced bullying, harassment, or other negative interactions
- 28% of students were bullied because of their race/ethnicity
- 56% of students witnessed a racist incident by a student on campus
- only 49% of students feel like they can be his/her/them self on campus
