Through the participation of the community, and the work of our team, we were able to serve 10,000 meals to children from July 7th to August 22nd. Thank you to the awesome members of our CCSD Food Service team that made it all happen this summer!

Enjoy today, friends. We'll see you tomorrow for all the excitement of the first day of school!
Get your cameras ready, folks! The first day of school is Thursday, and we love sharing as many first day pictures as we can get. If you'd like to submit some this year, send them along via email to camdenphotos@camdencsd.org
Whether it's celebrating the first day of school for your child(ren), or you're an employee or student excited about your upcoming year, it's all welcome here!
Submission Guidelines:
- JPEG, PNG, or HEIC files will work. Generally anything taken with a typical phone or camera works!
- While we know that it is a very popular trend right now, we ask, that you please keep pictures with signs containing information about your child to a minimum in anything that you submit, if possible.
(We will blur out that information on any signs we see in photos you submit.)
We'll be sharing them in groups on Facebook and on our Website as they come in through the end of the week, and into the early part of next week. Send them in no later than Monday at 7 AM for your chance!

On Tuesday, September 2nd, (That's today!) the Arizona Tacos Food Truck will be on site at CHS to serve delicious tacos, with a portion of sales benefitting the CHS Class of 2027!
4 PM to Close/Sold Out if you'd like to get yours!

We changed things up a bit by taking our all-staff meeting outdoors this year, with a brief overview of expectations accompanied by laughter, celebration, coffee, and conversation. Our staff will be working on final preparations throughout the day, and into Wednesday!
One more week until we go back to school, Blue Devils!
