We have some ADDITIONAL good news! We have just been informed by WKTV that they now intend to air Friday's episode of Jeopardy! on TWO occasions to help serve you better.
For those who get their local channels out of Utica, you will be able to see Dr. Brianne Barker '98 compete in the Champions Wild Card tournament quarterfinals on Friday, 12/1 at 5:30 PM, or on Saturday, 12/2 at 7:30 PM.
WKTV has special programming airing through the show's regularly scheduled time slot of 7:30 PM on Friday, so they elected to add a special same-day airing for local viewers.
If you receive your local channels from Syracuse, you can find the show at its regularly scheduled time slot. It will air on the Syracuse FOX affiliate on Friday, 12/1 at 7:30 PM.
If she wins, we will let you know when her next show airs as soon as we have details.

This afternoon, the District was made aware of an odor of natural gas in the vicinity of Camden High School and Camden Elementary School. Building Administrators were able to immediately determine that the odor was originating from outside the buildings. As a precautionary measure, a call was placed to 911, and the Camden Fire Department and Camden Police Department immediately responded. It was promptly determined that students and staff were not in any danger, and the odor dissipated while the agencies were at the scene. With that understanding, the District was able to facilitate a safe, on time dismissal from both buildings.
The District would like to thank the Camden Fire Department and the Camden Police Department for their immediate response, as well as our Building Administrators and Building Safety Teams for following safety protocols. In addition, we are grateful to our Buildings and Grounds and Custodial staffs for their prompt attention and professionalism.
Camden Schools have a 2 hour delay on Wednesday, November 29 due to poor weather conditions. Our AM PreK and AM Boces classes are cancelled for the day.

Today, students at Camden High School came to school in their pajamas to support a very special four-legged friend. This is Cooper.
Cooper is Mrs. Hooker's therapy dog. Unfortunately, Cooper was recently diagnosed with Histiocytic Sarcoma, and students decided to come together and show their support.
Mrs. Hooker and Cooper wanted to take a moment to thank every single person within the CHS community who showed their support during what can be a very challenging journey.
Don't blink! It has already been a week since junior prom, and it sometimes feels like it was yesterday. We hope the Class of 2025 had a great time!
