CES Families!
As you may have already seen, the Camden Elementary School PTO has been hard at work to help with the cost of school supplies.
Last night, the PTO announced to the CES community that many necessary supplies for Camden Elementary School students for the 2025-26 school year will be provided with money and resources amassed through PTO fundraising efforts! There may be some selected items still needed, but this is a huge step forward for our families.
Please join us in extending appreciation to this incredible group of volunteers for all they do, and to everyone who contributed to making this opportunity a reality!
Want to help them continue their great work? Consider participating in their upcoming Camden Color Blast 5K!
