In fourth grade at CES, "It's okay to feel all the stuff you are feeling". Happy Halloween!
The CES First Grade and Fourth Grade teams went a little.... "Inside Out" with their costume choices this year!

Dutch and Evan at CES are celebrating an impromptu "Twin Day"!

Someone get Todd Gordon '87 on the line..... We've got ourselves a driver!
It was nice of Josh Allen and James Cook to stop by CES before Sunday's big game against the Dolphins. Halloween really brings out the superstars!
Yellow Brick Road? Or a sidewalk on Empey Ave? When it's a Halloween parade, the answer can be both!
Superheroes, Supervillains, an Ear of Corn, and just about everything in between! Our Camden Elementary School students were not short on ideas during Thursday's Halloween Parade!
It's one thing to look the part. It's another to invest in it and play the role.
Happy halloween from Mrs. Zoldi's third grade class!!!!Â

Happy Halloween from Mrs. Cochran's first grade class!

In a clever turn of the English language, our CES second grade teachers have brought a different kind of "school" to school today! Keep an eye out for these jellyfish throughout the day!
The CES Halloween parade starts at 9:15 AM! We'll see you shortly!

CES Kindergarten had an "Out of this World" Halloween morning!



Happy Halloween from Mrs. Keller and Mrs. Littler's Class!

While National School Bus Safety week has ended, the conversation about it continues.
On Tuesday, members of our Camden CSD transportation team made their way to Camden Elementary School for a day-long series of bus safety assemblies with our students!
Among the topics covered were loading and unloading, and positive bus behavior! We had some volunteers come up front to demonstrate.
Remember the following safety tips:
-Stay back until the bus has come to a complete stop and the bus doors have opened. The recommended distance is at least ten feet from the curb or white line.
-If crossing the street, wait for the bus driver's signal to do so.
-Look both ways when boarding, and when crossing.
-The bus driver will be watching for potential hazards. If you hear a horn from the bus, get back immediately.
-Use the handrails when loading and unloading the bus.
-Do not stop in the road to pick up a dropped item when boarding the bus. The size of the bus can make it difficult to see you. Finish crossing and alert the driver for next steps.
-When on the bus, stay in your seat and keep your hands to yourself. Face the front of the bus, keep the aisles clear, and talk quietly.
When students keep these tips in mind, they go a long way toward ensuring a safe ride for everybody!
Thanks to Connected Community Schools for helping to put the pieces in place for this event!

On Thursday, October 24th, the Camden Elementary School community held its annual Fall Carnival event! This event brings students, families, and staff together for hours of family fun, refreshments, and of course, books. Attendees can play carnival games set up by teachers, do craft activities, take pictures at the photo booth, receive a free book from our Title I initiative, and browse the Fall Scholastic Book Fair while socializing and building a stronger community.
We had over 500 people participate for what is surely one of our best turnouts yet for this event! Thanks for coming!
Mrs. Skinner and Mrs. Sessler’s 3rd grade class has completed their culminating project for Unit 2! Students used their knowledge from their Animal Classification Unit to make a research foldable of their favorite animal from their recent field trip to the Rosamond Gifford Zoo! They enjoyed being zoologists!

The Connected Community Schools Diaper Drive and Resource Fair is later today (10/28) at CHS in the front bus loop!
They will have diapers, formula, and pack and plays available while supplies last! If you need it, and they have it, you can get it today. Contact Valarie at 315-271-8780 for more information!
