We would like to take this opportunity to thank Ms. Shelley Bustamante, S.T.A.N.D. Project Coordinator and licensed MFCC, for providing our students and their families with emotional support and direction during the past two school years. She has helped many Carlmont students and their families work through crisis situations. If you would like more information regarding the S.T.A.N.D. Project, contact Ms. Bustamante at 650.595-0210 extension 8709. A one-page Community Resource Guide, listing local human service agencies and a tutoring resource guide is available in the Guidance Department. Check your report cards and transcript carefully for errors.
Successful students attend class daily and do homework.
Remind your student to ask for help from the teacher right away, when confused about an assignment or unable to understand the material. Do not drop classes without first talking to the teacher and asking for help. Students may also seek help from their guidance advisor when having problems in a class. Take advantage of tutoring available at lunch or after school. College-bound students need to be aware that freshman grades count in classes needed to meet college entrance requirements.
