Camden Families! A reminder that the long-running Box Tops for Education program has gone digital!
The Box Tops for Education program allows our schools to earn a small amount of money per participating product purchase, and that additional funding adds up! It can be used to further enrich the student experience. Get the app, select your school building, and start earning with your paper or online receipts today!
Camden Middle School, Camden Elementary School, and McConnellsville Elementary School are all listed as participating schools!

A few students stopped by to see Camden High School's resident therapy dog, Charlie, on Thursday!
Charlie is the personal dog of CHS Social Worker Michelle Mellon, and he is a certified therapy dog. Whether students are having a great day, a less-than-great day, or anything in between, they love to come see Charlie! And Charlie loves to see them too!
