Mrs. Malenowski's 3rd Grade IFA Reading Group raised $795.07 for Pennies for Puppies! The donation will be sent to Wanderers Rest Humane Society in Canastota. Thank you to everyone for your support!

Faculty Spotlight: Over the past week our new building mascot McCie the Bobcat has spent her time in Mrs. Skinner’s 3rd grade class. McCie (named for McVille) was awarded to Mrs. Skinner for her strong connections to her students and demonstrating the positive, relationship building characteristics and methods from the Capturing Kids Hearts Character education program ! She will decide which faculty or staff member “earns” the right to spend next week with McCie! I can’t wait !


Cupcake spent the day “hanging around” in the cafeteria making sure students were being Responsible… the students are having so much fun finding her each morning !


It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas here at McVille! Mrs. Allen’s elf Cupcake is moving around the building …


Students from Mrs. Hollis’ fourth grade share their Teamwork poster celebrating the end of November - this was the Capturing Kids Hearts character trait of the month ! Great job !


Mrs. Malenowski's 3rd grade IFA Reading Group is busy at work counting coins as part of their service project for the book Shiloh. We are collecting coins for Pennies For Puppies until Wednesday! Help us reach our $300 goal!

A message from Dr. Root:
A local radio station is still listing local schools that closed last Thursday due to poor weather. Please know this does not mean these schools are closed tomorrow. The District is watching the weather closely and will make the call first thing in the morning. In order to find out if Camden Schools are closed or have a 2 hour delay please check the District Website, Camden App or Parent Square.
Have a good evening,
Dr. Ravo Root
Superintendent of Camden Schools

Last week, Pre-K students and families celebrated the Halloween spirit through a variety of fun activities!




Happy Halloween from all of us at the Camden Central School District! We hope that everyone in our communities has a fun and safe evening!


This afternoon students received awards for demonstrating the character strength of Self-Direct through the Capturing Kids Hearts Character Education Program. Families learned about the CKH program and students watched an educational video and discussed ways to be self-directed. Congratulations to all of our winners who truly are Bobcats with Character !




Students at McVille were thrilled to welcome underwater photographer and author Michael Patrick O’Neill in conjunction with MO BOCES Arts in Education funds.

We are so happy to have a new “ fishy friend”!
