Being part of NJHS means leading by example. Some of Camden Middle School's NJHS members recently did exactly that by coming to Camden Elementary School to read to students! The CES community would like to thank Mr. and Mrs. Donaleski for giving their young learners this opportunity to work with some peer role models, and to Mrs. Kiser for her help with scheduling. They're looking forward to the next visit!
So much "growing" on in the agriculture classroom!
Students that are 4H members and have interest in learning more about poultry showing please register for this event through Oneida CCE!
Last week, Camden Middle School's Mrs. Willson was able to come to Mrs. Gonzalez’s first grade class at CES for Agricultural Literacy Week (3/18-3/22). She read the book, “I Love Strawberries!” to the class, showed them a real strawberry plant, and explained the life cycle of a strawberry. She even brought in real strawberries for the students to enjoy with yogurt and homemade whipped cream for dipping!

Izabella Johnson, Kayla Winn, and Luke Eveleth took time after school to share the cute new faces in the agriculture room with the district office! The ducklings were a hit!
Agriculture students Kayla Winn and Mary Hall spent after school candling fertile eggs to see embryo tic development of the incubating chicks!
High school animal science students finished their "hen house" designs today for chick week! Critical thinking was used when developing hen house building plans and executing the builds!
Agriculture students were grinning ear to ear today as they learned the art of showing poultry. Many students were able to apply previous knowledge from earlier in the week to todays exercise. Memories were made and laughs were had! Agriculture education belongs in Camden! #chickweek
Matthew Albrecht and Luke Eveleth took the time today during Animal Science to create an educational video regarding showing poultry! Both students are heavily involved in FFA and Matthew was Master Showman of the Boonville-Oneida County Fair in 2023!
"Berry" excited agriculture students!
The chick week activity for the day is poultry anatomy and egg anatomy! Students learned poultry anatomy with "peeps" and got down and dirty with an egg dissection!
We had a Wednesday morning visitor in the office! Agriculture instructor Karly Marshman brought over Elena the African Leopard Tortoise! Elena has been in the ag room for a few months now. She is 14 years old, and typically, these quiet and friendly creatures often live over 50 years, and in some cases, closer to 100 years!
After school activities for Camden Schools are cancelled on Tuesday, March 19, due to poor weather in the Northern end of the District.
