Mrs. Kuc’s class celebrated the 100th day of school with some triple digit themed activities! The class incorporated an active element to their celebration by seeing who could stand on one foot for 100 seconds, do 100 jumping jacks, and who could run in place for 100 seconds. They also graphed a total of 100 snack items and enjoyed the tasty result of their work afterwards!
Our students are officially 100 days brighter!

They also enjoyed delicious hot chocolate! Special thanks to the CES PTO for making today magical for our students!

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.

At Camden Elementary, we believe that every child is a story, not just a statistic. However, those numbers help us tell that story more clearly!
Last week, our dedicated teachers came together for our Camden Elementary Data Days. It was a time of deep collaboration, focused entirely on the growth and success of your children. We were honored that board member Ben Mitchell attended to see this important work!
We did not just look at spreadsheets; we looked at the faces behind the facts. Our teams spent the days: analyzing reading and math trends, making intentional instructional shifts, and collaborating as grade level teams to make sure every Cougar has the tools for success!
We are so deeply committed to the overall well-being of our students. By taking this time to pause and reflect on our data, we ensure that no child is overlooked and that our teaching remains as purposeful and caring as possible.
We are so proud of the hard work our students are putting in, and we are honored to partner with you in their journey! 🐾✨
