New Gov/Econ and World History teacher Matt Sweeney debuts on campus after a stint at Ukiah High School.
Sweeney said he “needed a change” and chose Campolindo because he “knew it was a good school.”
“It’s a really good school, there are a lot of high expectations, and the kids are great. The staff is awesome. It’s a lot of fun being here,” Sweeney said.
“Ukiah High School and Campolindo are two super different schools, so that’s been an adjustment,” Sweeney said. “The student population is different, socioeconomic status is very different. I came from a school where there’s about 70% free and reduced lunch. And there’s about 1% here. I think there are way more opportunities here that are awarded to students than in Ukiah. It’s like going from an impoverished, rural community to a somewhat affluent, suburban area.”
