Our students have been so excited about the upcoming release of Wicked:For Good in November so Mrs. Britton created this book display featuring characters from the Wizard of Oz, book that mention the book or movie, or books that are often enjoyed by others who are a fan of the Wicked musical. She also included a few books about tornadoes, for our more scientifically minded students. 🌪️ 🧙 🎵

A few more of our new Who Was/Who Is books can be seen here. These are very popular, short, informational biographies. The students love reading these as a jumping off point to get to know a little more about historical and modern figures of interest.

When you have a family member that chose to serve in the armed forces, you often carry a piece of that with you into school each day. Sixth grader Vincent Rumrill decided to honor his brother's service by carrying his belongings in this military backpack!

First Day of School

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!

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.
