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.

Happy New Year! We wish you all a happy and healthy 2026, and a fantastic celebration this evening.
As a friendly reminder, classes are scheduled to resume on Monday, January 5th, 2026.

The holiday cheer almost went through the roof today at today's Camden Elementary School Holiday Assembly! The school community gathered for an amazing interactive reading of The Polar Express, including receiving their very own bell like in the book and accompanying film! They also received a visit from Santa and Mrs. Claus, sang some carols, and received a free T-Shirt with some help from Santa and our amazing Camden Elementary School PTO!

Each December, Mrs. Guhin’s 4th grade orchestra students are given the opportunity to complete the “Jingle Bells Challenge”! Students practice 4 lines of “Jingle Bells” at home and come back prepared to play it with Mrs. Guhin.
So far, 10 students have completed the challenge and earned some fun prizes! Students have until break to play it for Mrs. Guhin and get their name on the “Jingle Bells Challenge” board near the music room!
