We are into the second week of the 2025 Summer Food Service Program! The Summer Food Service Program operates under the supervision of the US Department of Agriculture. It allows anyone 18 years of age and under to receive a free breakfast and lunch daily during the period the program operates. The program will operate at Camden Elementary School from Monday, July 7th to Friday, August 22nd. It will run on a Monday to Friday schedule, with food pick-up available at any point from 8:30 AM to noon daily. There are no eligibility requirements other than a child’s age. The child does not need to be enrolled in the district, nor are there any income requirements. This year, the District has received approval to operate Camden Elementary School as a “Non-Congregate Feeding Site”, which means that meals will be offered exclusively in a Grab-and-Go format. Each participating child will receive a single bag containing one cold breakfast and one cold lunch daily. You will not be allowed to receive multiple days’ worth of meals in a single day. Anyone 18 or under can pick up a daily breakfast and lunch at any point during the distribution time at Camden Elementary School. Parents/guardians may also pick up meals for their children by providing their names.
If you're looking to get a jump start on prep for the upcoming year, supply lists from CES and CMS have been posted here!: https://www.camdenschools.org/page/school-supply-lists

Last week, Camden Elementary School came together for some fun at the expense of a few staff volunteers to raise money for the student council and fourth grade gym jam! Students and staff bought raffle tickets for a chance to pie a staff member - or in Miss Buehler's case, her own father, SPO William Buehler!
If you need help on a home improvement project, might we suggest Craig over in the lawn and garden department? Great guy. Knows his stuff. And also looks familiar too.
Mr. Ferretti certainly looked the part as he helped put the finishing touches on some improvements to the front entrance at CES!
This leaves a key question that only he can really answer: Is this a costume, or a window into a part time retirement job?
But seriously - On this last day of school, we thank Mr. Ferretti for sharing so much of his career with all of us, and for so many great times along the way. We wish you all the best!
What's the fastest 100 meter dash time in the world this year by someone in an inflatable costume?
We don't know. We're going to guess the IAAF doesn't know either. But perhaps, the answer lies at Camden Elementary School. The CES Family came together to bring last day excitement to the next level with some staff inflatable races, and the racers had as much fun as the students did!
Also, who knew a T-Rex could run that fast?
Have a fantastic summer, CES Cougars!
The Camden Elementary School fourth grade Gym Jam has become a cherished year-end event, and this year's edition raised the bar with a foam party!
July menus are out for the grab-and-go portion of the 2025 Summer Food Service Program! The program, supported by the USDA, offers free meals for any child 18 or under.
The program will run from July 7th to August 22nd on a Monday to Friday schedule. Daily, one-stop pickup service with breakfast and lunch included will take place at Camden Elementary School from 8:30 to Noon on each day of operation.
Questions can be directed to Pearl Romano (promano@camdencsd.org).
