GUIDANCE

 

The Guidance Department

The San Clemente High School guidance staff serves students and parents as a resource for educational information. Individuals receive assistance related to graduation requirements, academic progress, high school four-year education plans, testing, possible career options, college or career decisions, and scholarships.

 
Academic Assistance
Students are assigned to an academic advisor alphabetically, according to their last names. Although making an appointment is advised, students are always welcome to stop in to see their academic advisor during non-class time if they have questions or need assistance.
Parents may call their child's academic advisor between the hours of 8:00 AM and 3:30 PM at 492-4165. It would be helpful to leave a specific time when the advisor can return your call. In the summer advisors are usually available until the end of June. They return in early August.

 
Four-Year Planning

Four-year planning takes place in the freshman year to establish a personal line of communication between the school, the academic advisor, the student, and his or her parents. Academic advisors are student advocates and liaisons on the high school campus. They are trained to help students match their strengths and interests with their goals, and to help in directing them toward college, technical, and career-based class planning. Near the end of each semester throughout high school, students are contacted by the Guidance Department and asked to select their courses for the following semester. These selections should be discussed with parents, who should then sign the course selection form before the student returns it to school. All selections are reviewed by academic advisors to ensure the student is on track with his or her four-year plan and for completing the requirements for graduation. Parents, however, should also look at course selections carefully and call advisors if they have any questions.

CAL GRANT

Attention Seniors:

 

If you may be attending a California university or college and wish to be considered for a Cal Grant financial award, our high school will need to send your verified GPA to the California Student Aid Commission. This is the first year that SCHS will be uploading your information electronically. The electronic process is more secure than regular mail and will ensure a faster and more accurate transmission of your information.

 

In order for SCHS to do this, it is required that you print out the attached Cal Grant GPA Information Release Form and return it to the Guidance Office desk as soon as possible.  Please fill out all required information neatly.  The “Spring School Code” is 052814 (San Clemente’s code).  This gives your consent to the process. We will be uploading GPAs on a monthly basis, with the last ones sent on March 2. Please help us out by returning this form as soon as possible and not waiting until March. Thank you.
