On Wednesday, October 8th, the Camden High School Auditorium Stage lit up with the glimmer of live performance as the Camden High School Theatre Department presented the first portion of "Two Afternoons of Monologues and Dialogues".
Held each Fall, the Monologues and Dialogues puts students on stage in front of an audience to hone and develop their performance skills individually. For younger students, it may be their first time on stage alone, or at the very least, their first time doing so at the high school level. For older students, it's an opportunity to fine tune their skills as they prepare for larger roles. Each student or pairing is tasked with preparing a selection of their choice for the stage. The material may come from classic theatrical selections, written literature, modern television or cinema, or even from famous speeches.
Thirteen performances took place today, and were as follows. An additional thirteen works will be performed on Thursday.
Kayleigh Harrington - Monologue from "10 Things I Hate About You"
Emily Conover - Monologue from "A Walk to Remember"
Kamryn LaPolt and Willow Edwards - Dialogue from "The Deathly Hallows"
Olivia Potter - Monologue from "Cruella"
Garet Rocker - Theodore Roosevelt's "Man in the Arena"
Brooklyn Waterman and Kinzie Collins - Dialogue from "Gilmore Girls"
Justin Melnick - Dialogue from "Menace"
Natalie Hotaling - Monologue entitled "How to Never Stop Being Sad."
Adam Orsino - Monologue from "Steel Magnolias"
Haylie Salay - Monologue from "You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown"
Willow Kratz and Izzy Fuller - Dialogue from "Bungo Stray Dogs"
Amelia Nobis - Monologue from "The 100"
Gage Grinnell - Monologue from "Star Wars: Episode II"

Veterans Day is just around the corner for 2025. To help mark the occasion, the Camden Middle School Social Studies Department is bringing the Disabled American Veterans “Field of Flags” initiative to Camden Middle School.
This unique program will create a powerful veterans’ day flag display at Camden Middle School, along with raising money for the Disabled American Veterans organization, which helps veterans navigate and gain access to employment assistance, education, financial benefits, healthcare, disability assistance, and other benefits they’ve been promised. They also provide transportation to and from VA facilities to ensure all veterans can get the medical care they require.
CMS Students will visit the display for a lesson on Veterans Day during their Social Studies classes on Monday, November 10th.
Here’s how it works:
1. Visit https://support.dav.org/participant/CamdenMiddleSchool.
2. Select the amount you’d like to donate. Currently, they sit at $60.00 of a $500.00 starting goal. For each $250.00 raised, CMS receives two dozen flags with the proceeds going to help DAV in their mission. Assuming they receive the first two dozen flags, the display will proceed as planned.
Questions can be directed to Jeff Doran at jdoran@camdencsd.org.
