West Campus Swimmer Named Scholastic All American
Congratulations, Lucy Huang!
West Campus sophomore Lucy Huang has been selected by USA Swimming to the 2018-19 Scholastic All America Team!
To earn the title of Scholastic All American, Lucy had to meet the 2018 Winter Junior time standards in the pool while maintaining a minimum 3.5 GPA at school.
Balancing sports and academics is no easy task, and we are extremely proud of our scholar-athletes at West Campus. Congratulations to Lucy on this achievement, as well as her coaches and family for their support.
West Campus Recognized for Sending Students to College
Five West Campus grads featured in Sacramento Bee video
West Campus has been recognized as one of the Sacramento area schools that send the most graduates to college.
“Not surprisingly, schools located in wealthier areas are much more likely to send a higher proportion of graduates to college… But some schools in economically disadvantaged areas punch above their weight, particularly Sacramento Charter High and West Campus, both located in South Sacramento.”

New Parking Rules: Front lot is for students & visitors/parents
The parking lot nearest the West Campus front office is now reserved for students and visitors (including parents and guardians). The back lot is for staff only, during the school day. This new arrangement became necessary with the completion of our new STEM Building.
In order to maintain pedestrian safety, we no longer allow vehicles to drive between the STEM Building and our main building.
There are no changes to the morning drop-off or afternoon pick-up arrangements.
