For several years, Camden CSD students have received a free breakfast and lunch through the Community Eligibility Provision without an application requirement. That will continue this year.
While not required for meals, we still encourage all district families to fill out the Income Eligibility Form each year, regardless of circumstances.
It’s free, it’s confidential, it only takes a few minutes, and it can have a positive impact on the resources available to our staff and students. See the informational graphic below to learn more about how filling out the Income Eligibility Form can make a difference in our school community.
Forms are available at https://www.camdenschools.org/o/ccsd/page/food-services, and one will also be sent home with your student(s) at the beginning of the school year.
Questions can be directed to the Camden CSD Business Office.
Under the Community Eligibility Provision of the National School Lunch Program, we will continue to provide all students with a free breakfast and lunch each day during the 2024-25 school year.

Today, students in our Summer Programming are learning all about the Olympics and the spirit of competition. From making Olympic rings from air-dried clay, to watercolor paintings, to Olympic Bingo, to a spirited game of "Addition Slap" to cap off the day at the Brain Gain Institute, our students are finding ways to win each day throughout the Summer.
Countdown to liftoff has begun! Join Connected Community Schools on Thursday for this awesome paper rocket activity! Contact info for our representatives is included in the image.
Students from Mrs. Stauring's Kindergarten Bootcamp class spent some time in the library with Mrs. Hollis learning about the Olympics from some extra special books and cheering on the USA athletes who are " Going for the Gold!"
The Kindergarten BootCamp program has begun! This exciting two-week program is in its third year running alongside its companion program, Brain Gain Institute. Kindergarten BootCamp was created to help our incoming Kindergartners with the transition to their first year of full-day school.
Miss Leone and Miss Scheftic’s classroom certainly got off to a strong start with this sorting activity! The class used the colors of the Olympic rings to practice sorting objects by color.
We are pleased to announce that Camden has been recognized as a 2023-24 NYSPHSAA School of Excellence! The School of Excellence program recognizes a department-wide commitment to student-athlete achievement in the classroom.

District Statement Regarding Lockout on July 30th.
On Tuesday, July 30th, The Camden Central School District received a report of shots fired on Preston Hill Road near the shared boundary between the Town of Camden and the Town of Vienna.
In the interest of student and staff safety, we initiated lockout procedures at all District buildings until advised by the Oneida County Sheriff's Office that it was safe to resume standard entry and exit protocol at approximately 9:15 AM.
Law Enforcement responded to the scene of the alleged incident, and their investigation determined that no shots were fired, and the concern was brought about by an engine backfire from a passing vehicle at that location. At no time do we believe that our staff or students were in any imminent danger. We will continue to be proactive in our response to matters that may potentially affect the safety of our students and staff.
