Last week, the Modified Girls Track Team celebrated the end of their season at Coneheads North! This was their “banquet” to recognize the hard work that the athletes have put in since the end of March. The girls had ice cream, played some lawn games, and they also enjoyed talking about the great season they've had!

Camden FFA spent Friday educating elementary students about dairy calves at DiNitto Farms in Marcy NY! Each student spoke in front of large crowds of students and did an outstanding job answering questions regarding dairy calf care, and represented the chapter and District well amongst their peers locally. Special thanks to Mrs. Wilson for setting our students up with this opportunity!

On Saturday, the Camden Elementary School PTO played host to its 2025 Color Blast Run! Proceeds from the event will go to help the PTO continue their great work on behalf of our students, staff, and families! Thank you to all who pitched in to make this event a success!

We're looking forward to celebrating our High School students at these highly anticipated events!

The June concert schedule gets started tonight with 5th grade at Camden Middle School!

Between balloon animals, karate demonstrations, Color Blast bib pickup, face painting, and science demos with the famous Professor K, there was something for everyone at last night's Camden Cares Fair!

Today, the Camden High School chapter of the National Honor Society took its annual year-end trip! Chapter members toured some of the City of Boston's most treasured landmarks including walking a portion of the Freedom Trail that connects 16 significant historic sites together. They also went to the renowned Quincy Market, and visited the Boston Aquarium!

At Thursday's Section III Class A Championship Meet, two Blue Devils took top honors! Congratulations to Brenden Chennells (800 meters), and Ellie Hite (pentathlon) on securing event championships on their home track! Brenden ran a 1:59.88 to win and put himself less than a second away from the school record. Ellie endured the grind of a five-event evening (100m Hurdles, High Jump, Shot Put, Long Jump, 800m) to capture the pentathlon championship. She was a top two performer among the field in all five events. A very special mention goes to Anna Gilsenan, who was a close second in the pentathlon at 2,027 points, and won two out of the five events in it.

McConnellsville Elementary School had a great morning recognizing its "Bobcats With Character" award winners for May! This month's character trait was Integrity!

At the end of Wednesday morning's festivities, we got our fourth grade winners from each school together, along with team photos from Camden and McConnellsville! After a day of spirited competition, the bar has been set high (pun intended) for our third graders on Friday!

It's tough to run a track meet efficiently without a great group of officials to help keep the events moving forward. Luckily for us, we had a great group of student volunteers to help us yesterday! They not only kept our events operating smoothly, but also gave our younger students a glimpse into the leadership skills they'll need to succeed in high school.

On Wednesday, fourth graders from both elementary schools came together to compete as part of the annual Camden Central School District fourth grade track meet! The event is always a highlight of the year, especially for this group as they prepare to become one Blue Devil family at Camden Middle School this fall! Students strived to do their best while representing their school in six individual track events, five field events, and an exciting mixed 4x100 meter relay. Along the way, the competitors also learned how much they've grown since their third grade meet a year ago!

The CCSD Third Grade Track and Field Meet scheduled for Thursday morning has been postponed to its rain date, Friday 5/30 (Tomorrow). The start time remains 9:15 AM on the new date. This change does not affect today's Section III Championship Meet at CHS.
