National Junior Society Inductions:

Caring for someone,
However difficult it is.
Acting with

Acting with the knowledge every
Choice you make has an effect on
Those around you.

It’s

Accommodating those who need help,
Dealing with problems that arise.
Eagerly taking any chance to learn.

Camden Middle School Marching Band on Memorial Day:
On Monday, 5/31/21, Camden Middle School Marching Band was a part of the annual Memorial Day Celebration at the Taberg American Legion. The 2021 Marching Band looked much different this year as band students needed to be socially distanced when playing instruments. Mrs. Chase, Mrs. Morehouse, and Mrs. Stowell Hollis decided to do a bucket drum ensemble with Colorguard so that interested musicians could have a way to serve their community safely this Spring!
This year, the band was comprised of 30 students across grades 5-8. Students represented Camden Middle School with pride. Marching Band students and directors would like to thank Angie Kirk, Legion Commander, for the invitation and support of our students.

CHS Debuts "Power of Possibility":
Camden High School welcomed back students on January 19th with the "Power of Possibility" an initiative that conveys hope, growth, resilience and renewal. Possibility suggests that with belief and taking steps forward you can achieve whatever it is you desire. The word “power” implies that things can and will happen. When we focus on what is possible, we have hope. We have hope in ourselves and in others. As teachers we have hope that students will grow, thrive and bloom and will be empowered to take the action steps necessary to do so.

Happy Holidays from CHS Concert Band:
Beginning in September, CHS musicians have been preparing for a concert not knowing what was in store for the upcoming months. Around the end of October, concert band members began to prepare short musical arrangements as a backup plan in case school went fully remote. Students gained the experience of collaborating with each other, evaluating their effort, and repeating the necessary steps until their desired outcome was achieved. The following presentation represents these efforts and the band is excited to share them with you for the holiday season. Happy Holidays!
