We will be holding another FCC Affordable Connectivity Program sign-up night at Camden High School. Come on out to the CHS Library on Thursday, November 16th beginning at 5:30 PM to learn more about the program. Under the Affordable Connectivity Program, parents/guardians of currently enrolled CCSD students are eligible to receive a monthly discount on their internet service of up to 30 dollars through a participating provider. They are eligible because we serve free meals to students under the Community Eligibility Provision. Numerous popular providers are included in this discount. You may also be able to receive a one-time device purchase discount as part of this program. (Restrictions apply).
To register, you will need to bring some information with you, which is detailed in the attached flyer. That information will be used to provide you with an eligibility letter certifying that your student is enrolled with us that you can use to receive your discount. You will need this letter to be able to get your discount in this manner under the Community Eligibility Provision.
We will have devices on site that you can use to register, or you can always take your eligibility letter home along with program information to sign up at your convenience. Contact Lauren Platt (lplatt@camdencsd.org) if you have any questions. Even if you don't have a student with us, you may still qualify under a variety of criteria. Visit getinternet.gov to see how you may qualify.
It is with great sadness that we share the news of the passing of our dedicated bus driver, Robert Rowell. Rob, a member of the CHS Class of 1983, has been an invaluable member of our district staff since 2019. He has played a crucial role in ensuring the safe transportation of our students each day.
Rob was always a friendly face and a person who demonstrated tremendous pride and commitment in serving our students and community. That dedication extended outside of his working hours as a volunteer first responder with the Florence Fire Company.
During this difficult time, our thoughts and condolences go out to Robert’s wife, Colleen, his family and countless friends. We understand that his loss is profound, and we want to express our deepest sympathies to all who were close to him.
May Rob rest in peace. He will be missed.
Congratulations to our Prom Court!

Last year's King and Queen, JJ Barrett and Bailey Sharron, were on hand to help with the coronation.
Today, on the 11th day of the 11th month, we pause to reflect on the commitment and dedication of our armed forces veterans. Whether you're in our community, across the country, or around the globe, your work has made a difference for the greater good. Thank you!

Tuesday was election day, and our Camden Elementary Kindergarteners in Mrs. Riegler's class spent some time learning about democracy and the electoral process!
The class read the story "Duck for President" and filled out a ballot on who they thought should be the new President of the farm: Duck or Farmer Brown. Students entered the voting booth, tabulated the votes, and elected Duck as the president of the farm!
With the CHS Fall Play in the rear view mirror, Mrs. Hughes has started to drum up excitement for the CHS musical! As part of the big reveal, 20 musicals have been put on the board. Each day, one or two come down off the list of possibilities.
Today, Dr. Root stopped by to help by playing a little trivia game where students guessed what show was coming off the board.
What will it be?
Oliver? South Pacific? Peter Pan? The King and I? My Fair Lady? Something else? Stay tuned!
Signed. Sealed. Delivered.
One of the state's most prolific high school softball players is heading to UMass! Brooke Musch made her commitment to play Division I softball official by signing her National Letter of Intent in front of family, friends, and supporters from the Camden community on Wednesday.

Thanks to Kristina Musch, Athletic Director Josh Mazzaferro, Superintendent of Schools Dr. Ravo Root, and Kareem Jones for speaking on Brooke's behalf as we celebrated her achievements!
Congratulations, Brooke!
