If you use a child care provider for before or after school, and have not updated your transportation at any point this summer, please call 315-245-4096 as soon as possible to confirm the provider’s address for transportation purposes.
If you have updated your pick-up and drop-off points this summer, or you do not use a before or after school child care provider, you do not need to take any action.
The Camden Central School District is using a new routing system this year to provide enhanced information about routes such as times, and elevate the level of transportation services it is able to provide.
Drivers are currently test driving the preliminary runs to evaluate ride times. We have encountered some road closures and road work, and some last minute changes that have had some effect on routing. Transportation is working to resolve those issues and reduce ride times to the extent possible.
We anticipate that we can share a route update for the start of the year on Friday, 8/30.
Touch a Truck is tomorrow with Connected Community Schools!

For several years, Camden CSD students have received a free breakfast and lunch through the Community Eligibility Provision without an application requirement. That will continue this year.
While not required for meals, we still encourage all district families to fill out the Income Eligibility Form each year, regardless of circumstances. It’s free, it’s confidential, it only takes a few minutes, and it can have a positive impact on the resources available to our staff and students.
See the informational graphic below to learn more about how filling out the Income Eligibility Form can make a difference in our school community. Forms are available at https://www.camdenschools.org/o/ccsd/page/food-services, and one will also be sent home with your student(s) at the beginning of the school year. Questions can be directed to the Camden CSD Business Office.
McConnellsville Elementary School will hold its Kindergarten Orientation on Tuesday, August 27th! Attached is a schedule for the evening from Principal Heidi Allen. Contact the McVille Main Office if you have any questions.
