It's "Sap Season" folks!
Last week, Mrs. Willson prepared an engaging lesson about where maple syrup comes for the agricultural elective class at CMS!

Two members of the Madison-Oneida BOCES team brought their expertise to our staff in the Camden Central School District as part of our superintendent’s conference day on Friday, March 17th.
During morning sessions, Staff and Curriculum Development Specialist Becky Copp led the District’s special education staff in a discussion about the latest updates to testing accommodations for students with disabilities.
During the afternoon sessions, Camden hosted Media Librarian Cathi Brewer from the MOBOCES School Library System. Brewer showcased the ClickView and Swank Streaming products available through the SLS during two sessions for teachers. Clickview offers short and engaging educational content for teachers at all grade levels, while Swank Streaming offers thousands of fully-licensed, full-length feature films curated exclusively for educators.
We are so fortunate to have tremendous regional leadership to learn from!

What is yellow or orange and has 100 petals? MARIGOLDS! Students in the CMS agriculture elective learned the history and uses of marigolds on Thursday, March 16th. Students had the opportunity to start growing their own marigolds, which they can hopefully take home later in the school year!
The celebration may have happened early this year, but that didn't put a damper on the fun as Camden Elementary School celebrated St. Patrick's Day this week!
We hope you have a wonderful day, and a wonderful weekend!
