How about some CHS seniors celebrating their final first day today? Here, we have Kait, Faith, Shy, Maddie, Garret, and Cody who all started on their senior year adventures this morning! Make it count, make it yours, and make it memorable!
Get your cameras ready, folks! The first day of school is Thursday, and we love sharing as many first day pictures as we can get. If you'd like to submit some this year, send them along via email to camdenphotos@camdencsd.org
Whether it's celebrating the first day of school for your child(ren), or you're an employee or student excited about your upcoming year, it's all welcome here!
Submission Guidelines:
- JPEG, PNG, or HEIC files will work. Generally anything taken with a typical phone or camera works!
- While we know that it is a very popular trend right now, we ask, that you please keep pictures with signs containing information about your child to a minimum in anything that you submit, if possible.
(We will blur out that information on any signs we see in photos you submit.)
We'll be sharing them in groups on Facebook and on our Website as they come in through the end of the week, and into the early part of next week. Send them in no later than Monday at 7 AM for your chance!
One more week until we go back to school, Blue Devils!

This is our final week for 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 operates at Camden Elementary School until Friday, August 22nd. It runs 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.
