9/23/24 This week's PBIS winners! Congratulations!

As Mrs. Solano’s 6th grade ELA classes finished the novel, Insignificant Events in the Life of a Cactus, students were encouraged to explore their own creativity to demonstrate their ability to determine a theme. Students created unique and original projects to display some of the novel’s themes of empathy, friendship, overcoming obstacles and more!

Students learn how authors develop a character’s point-of-view through specific word choice! Mrs. Solano’s 6th grade ELA classes work together to rewrite a scene using a different point-of-view from the original story.

Attention Camden Families: There is an increased presence of law enforcement at our schools as a precautionary measure. If you notice more officers on campus, please know that this does not necessarily indicate a problem. Our top priority is the safety and well-being of our students and staff. Rest assured, we will always communicate promptly if there is ever a threat to our school community. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

📚✨ Problem Solving in Camden County Schools: A Step-by-Step Guide! 🌟 At Camden County Schools, we believe in addressing issues promptly and effectively. Here's the process to ensure your concerns are heard and resolved: 🔹 Step 1: Teacher/Staff Member Closest to the Situation Start by discussing the issue with the teacher or staff member who is directly involved. They are often the best equipped to provide immediate solutions or clarifications. 🔹 Step 2: School Administrator/Division Supervisor If the problem isn't resolved, the next step is to contact the school administrator or division supervisor. They can offer additional support and resources to help address the concern. 🔹 Step 3: Central Office Administrator Should the issue persist, reach out to a central office administrator. They have a broader perspective and can coordinate with various departments to find a resolution. 🔹 Step 4: Superintendent For more complex issues, the Superintendent is available to provide higher-level intervention and ensure that all policies and procedures are being followed. 🔹 Step 5: Board of Education As a last resort, you can bring the concern to the Board of Education. They oversee the entire school district and can make decisions on policy changes or other significant actions. We are committed to creating a positive and supportive environment for our students, staff, and community. Your voice matters, and we're here to help every step of the way! 💬🤝 #BElieveinCAMDEN #WeAreCamden #ProblemSolving #CommunitySupport #YourVoiceMatters
