Today, students at Camden High School came to school in their pajamas to support a very special four-legged friend. This is Cooper.
Cooper is Mrs. Hooker's therapy dog. Unfortunately, Cooper was recently diagnosed with Histiocytic Sarcoma, and students decided to come together and show their support.
Mrs. Hooker and Cooper wanted to take a moment to thank every single person within the CHS community who showed their support during what can be a very challenging journey.
Don't blink! It has already been a week since junior prom, and it sometimes feels like it was yesterday. We hope the Class of 2025 had a great time!

With the CHS Fall Play in the rear view mirror, Mrs. Hughes has started to drum up excitement for the CHS musical! As part of the big reveal, 20 musicals have been put on the board. Each day, one or two come down off the list of possibilities.
Today, Dr. Root stopped by to help by playing a little trivia game where students guessed what show was coming off the board.
What will it be?
Oliver? South Pacific? Peter Pan? The King and I? My Fair Lady? Something else? Stay tuned!
Signed. Sealed. Delivered.
One of the state's most prolific high school softball players is heading to UMass! Brooke Musch made her commitment to play Division I softball official by signing her National Letter of Intent in front of family, friends, and supporters from the Camden community on Wednesday.
The reigning Tri-Valley League Player of the Year and 2023 Second Team All-State selection had an absolutely remarkable year while leading the Blue Devils to an undefeated regular season.
Thanks to Kristina Musch, Athletic Director Josh Mazzaferro, Superintendent of Schools Dr. Ravo Root, and Kareem Jones for speaking on Brooke's behalf as we celebrated her achievements!
Congratulations, Brooke!
