The polls are now open!
The Camden Central School District encourages all District residents aged 18 or older to participate in our 2023 school budget vote and Board of Education elections. The polls will be open on Tuesday, May 16th from noon to 9 p.m. in the Camden High School Auditorium Lobby. You may enter to vote through the front or back of the building in that area.
Voters will cast ballots to determine whether or not to approve the 2023-24 proposed budget for the Camden Central School District. Four available seats on the Board of Education will also be decided, with six candidates listed on the ballot. Consistent with the number of available seats, you may select a maximum of four candidates on your ballot.
All voters should be prepared to show proof of residency. You must be a resident of the district for at least 30 days prior to the vote, and you must not be prohibited from voting per Section 5-106 of the Election Law.

Students at Camden Elementary School received a visit from local children's author Jermiko Thomas this morning! He shared one of his many inspirational stories to the students in attendance.
Jermiko is a fitting guest to have at school as we wrap up our April elementary character focus: Perseverance. He was unable to speak until the age of six, but went on to become a successful professional and published author!
We also hosted him during the District-wide reading extravaganza earlier this month, so students were excited to see that he was coming back!
