Today's the day. Two Blue Devils hit the mat in the 2026 NYSPHSAA Girls' Wrestling Championships at Albany's MVP Arena! Wrestling starts at 9:30, but you'll need to keep an eye on the mat assignments to see when our student-athletes will compete, as it's dependent on the pace of other matches taking place.
Sophomore Rylie Meagher is the 7th seed in the 120 bracket. She will battle Isabella Juliano of Bay Shore in bout #39.
Senior Astro Johnson is unseeded at 185, and will meet Bethlehem's Charleigh Eick in Bout 95.

In addition, scammers love to mass tag participating schools/organizations in comments under their own posts. So be wary of that as well.

Across theatre and sports, it's a busy weekend in Blue Devil country. Amidst the flurry of challenges and opportunities ahead, you may not find anyone quite as busy as CHS senior Gage Grinnell. On Friday, Gage and the CHS Musical Cast open their production of "Big Fish" with a 7 PM performance, where he is starring in the lead male role as storyteller extraordinaire Edward Bloom.
That seems busy enough for one day, but on Saturday, it all goes up a notch. On Saturday morning, Gage will briefly switch characters - and eras - as he takes part in the Syracuse Regional Shakespeare Competition hosted by the Syracuse Branch of the English Speaking Union. As Camden's school-wide champion, he will perform a Shakespearean Monologue, and a Shakespearean Sonnet for the judges. The winner advances to the national competition in New York City.
Once the competition is complete, he will head back to Camden for two more "Big Fish" performances. A 2 PM matinee, and a 7:30 PM concluding performance.
Whether it's on our stage, or at Syracuse Stage, best of luck this weekend from all of us!

In March, the "Let's Play" two-year-old program will once again have two sessions, to be held on Wednesday, March 4th, and Thursday, March 5th. Each session will begin at 10 AM.
Offered in partnership with Family School Navigation (Formerly Ready 4 Kindergarten), the “Let’s Play” program is a free monthly program for two-year-olds and their families. It consists of a monthly one-hour block of play-based learning and socialization with parent/guardian involvement. It is offered with the aim of progressing into the “Look at Me, I’m Three!” program for the following year, and creating a two year skill development on-ramp into Pre-K programming.
To be eligible for this program, a student must reside in the Camden Central School District, and must have reached the age of two on or before December 1st, 2025.
RSVPs are required each month. Spots are limited, and will be on a first-contact, first-serve basis. Early RSVPs are also more likely to get their preferred day to attend. To reserve your spot, or if you have questions, contact our Family School Navigator, Patti Ferretti, at 315-245-2616, extension 5200, or at pferretti@camdencsd.org.

It's a NEW track record! Congratulations to freshman Cameron Calkins for setting a new benchmark for the wooden CO2 dragster unit in our DDP (Design, Drawing, and Production) classes at Camden High School! Cameron's car put down a time of 1.016 in the semifinals to set the record, and he nearly repeated it in the final with a winning time of 1.019 seconds.
His time tops the previous record (1.058) set by Alex Lallier in 2024.
Students have been competing with their hand-built creations across three weight classes this week. Stay tuned for more on the competition!

Good Morning,
It has come to our attention that some parents unfortunately did not receive notification of the two hour delay this morning via ParentSquare as expected. This issue appears to stem from a group of accounts being suddenly deactivated, and is affecting some accounts across all district buildings.
Our technology team is working with our partners at the Mohawk Regional Information Center and ParentSquare to establish a greater understanding of the cause and achieve a resolution.
The District will keep you updated on progress and a resolution.

The Camden Central School District is on a 2-hour Delay for Today, Wednesday, February 25, 2026. Our morning BOCES and morning Pre-Kindergarten classes are canceled for today.
A Father. A Son. And a bevy of ridiculous stories. You won't believe everything you hear, but you will walk out believing in the power of family, and in the staying power that drives a good legend.

We're sending ANOTHER Blue Devil to Albany! Congratulations to Astro Johnson on qualifying for the NYSPHSAA State Girls' Wrestling Championship for the first time! After an early setback in the 185 quarterfinals at the Section III Championship, the senior ran the table in the consolation bracket, then won the true second match over Fulton's Hayleigh Lenz to secure a spot at states.
Astro will join our newly minted Section III champion, Rylie Meagher, at the NYSPHSAA Girls' Wrestling Championship on February 26th. Way to go!
