All after school activities are cancelled for Camden Schools on Thursday, February 15 due to poor weather.
Mrs. Keller and Mrs. Littler's class used candy hearts for a fun and educational Valentine's Day celebration in the classroom! They did a measuring exercise for some practice in learning about non-standard measuring units, and also did a science experiment. They dipped the hearts in soda, vinegar, and water, and were amazed when the ones in soda started moving! But why? The bubbles from the carbonation begin to attach themselves to each candy and begin lifting those candies to the top of the liquid. When the bubbles burst, the candy falls, and new bubbles begin attaching to lift it up once more.

The next "Look at Me, I'm Three" meeting will be held on February 28th! Remember to reach out to Mrs. Ferretti and RSVP if you are planning to bring your child. We're getting closer and closer to welcoming this group to Pre-K in the fall! How exciting!
100 days brighter, 100 days smarter, and their hats are also 100 percent awesome.
100 days into the year, we can't forget about our Nurses! Thanks to our health office teams for their attention to detail with our students over the last 100 school days. We know that through their hard work, we can finish this school year on a healthy note.
Happy 100th Day from Miss Leone's Class at CES!
Mrs. Iverson's first graders celebrated 100 days of learning with some unique activities showcasing all the ways they can count to 100. They made 100th day hats, wrote about what they'd do with 100 dollars, did a vocabulary exercise where they had to write 100 different words, and enjoyed a little treat by counting lollipop licks to 100!
For the 100th day, Miss Mulvaney's first grade class at CES completed a 100 day snack challenge after creating special hats for the big day!
Happy 100th Day of School from the Camden Central School District!
History, Language Arts, and Theater came together to create something awesome for Mrs. Skinner and Mrs. Sessler's third grade students at Camden Elementary! They've been busy learning about Ancient Rome. On Tuesday, they showed what they've learned with a special "Reader's Theatre" performance of Androcles and the Lion!

This week in Art IFA with Miss Lis, 4th graders learned about Graffiti art. Students brainstormed meaningful words, names and numbers that they then turned into Graffiti style stickers. Great job, 4th graders!

The Camden Central School District is pleased to announce the launch of its new "Before the Bell" Before School program!
Beginning February 1st, this free program will provide supervision, activities, breakfast, and more before each school day for students attending Camden Elementary and McConnellsville Elementary. A separate program will operate at each building.
The program's daily schedule will start at 7:55 AM, and students will have a chance to eat breakfast before starting school for the day. There will be no program on days where school is closed or delayed.
Registration openings are limited. If you are interested in registering your child for this opportunity, please return the registration form that is coming home with your student no later than Friday, 1/26.
After that form has been returned, the main office of your child's school will contact you to establish if your child has been accepted, or placed on the waitlist if applicable.
If you have questions, or your registration form does not arrive with your student in a timely manner, please contact the main office of your child's school to make arrangements to receive one.
We had a lot of fun hosting our One District, One Book Launch Assemblies at CES and MES. This year's book is "The Year of Billy Miller".
Friday's CES launch featured the debut of a music video you may have seen on this page, Mrs. Platt on rollerblades, and more.
Today's launch at MES featured a staff skit and a video to introduce the book.
And now, we read! The schedule starts tonight with Part 1, Chapter 1. Ideally, try to set a goal to complete the assigned reading schedule on time each weeknight. In addition to our elementary staff and students, members of our support staff and administrative office staff are also going to be reading along with your student!
To help support you and keep your student on track, the staff at each building has developed a web page for the program with the schedule, audio read-alongs from staff, and the daily trivia questions.
