A great time was had by all during McConnellsville's Halloween Parade on Tuesday! We were thrilled to have another outstanding turnout in support of our students!






Between the annual parade and their in-class celebrations, our CES students had a great time celebrating on Tuesday!





October 23-31 was Red Ribbon Week across the United States! This year, CMS students learned how to "be kind to your mind" and live drug free. During their lunch period, students signed a banner, pledging to make healthy choices and live drug free. They also participated in spirit week, competed in a call in type trivia game each day, and learned about the harmful effects of drugs. Thanks to the CMS Student Council for taking the lead on this initiative!


Whether it was Barbie, 101 Dalmatians, or a patch of pumpkins, our CES staff was all in for some Halloween fun!



The countdown goes to two days!

McVille families! It's that time again! The 3rd grade IFA reading group is hosting their "Pennies for Puppies and Coins for Kitties" fundraiser! All you have to do is send your spare change in with your student, and Mrs. Malenowski and her students will take care of getting the funds in the right hands. Proceeds will benefit the Paws for the Cause Rescue in Blossvale to help animals right in our backyard!
Mrs. Malenowski is your best person to contact with questions about this initiative.

Mrs. Abrams' class recently wrapped up their CKLA Knowledge study of The Human Body by making x-ray hands!
Happy Halloween!


Our CES staff, students, and families had a great time at last week's PTO/Title One Fall Festival!



Three days until opening night! Free admission!

The students in Mrs. Johnson's sixth grade reading class at CMS created some spooky Halloween crafts to take home to their families!



Would your student be interested in learning how to race on downhill skis? If they have experience on the slopes, Coach Bernabe and the Alpine Ski teams are looking for new members! The Blue Devils sent two athletes to the State Championships last year, and are looking for their next great competitor. Students in grades 7-12 are able to join.
Reach out to Coach Bernabe for more information. Signups can be completed via FamilyID at the following link: https://students.arbitersports.com/organizations/camden-central-schools-athletics

Four days until opening night of the CHS Fall Play, "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz!"
ADMISSION IS FREE! Spread the word and support our students!

On Thursday, October 26th, Kindergarten students at Camden Elementary got together to celebrate fall by making apple pizzas. Students followed directions to create a sweet treat that they enjoyed in their classrooms!



The best Mondays are the ones after winning a championship on Sunday.



That championship feeling! Congratulations, Blue Devils!

We were so honored to welcome children's author Daniel Jude Miller to McConnellsville earlier this week! Miller presented at both elementary schools in our district about authorship, illustration and design. He gave students some great starting points on how to explore authorship themselves, and showed them how with some household items, they can make a "monster" of their own as inspired by his "Monsters in Manhattan" series!
In preparation for the big day, students made monster pictures that were on display in the hallway. Daniel enjoyed them very much!
