One Good Thing:

Sweet treats, smiling faces, and Cardinal community spirit!

Thank you to Camden Fairview Bands and all the groups who helped make Trunk or Treat possible! Your time, creativity, and generosity brought our community together for an evening of fall fun.

To the families and community members who joined us: thank you for showing up and making the evening so special. We love making memories with our Cardinal community! 

Every Cardinal. Every Day.

K-5 Cardinal Families: You’re Invited to Our Annual Title I Meeting on November 5!

Join us on Thursday, November 5, at Ivory Intermediate School to learn how Title I supports our students and how families can help strengthen student success.

Meeting times are 1:00 PM and 5:30 PM. Choose the time that works best for your family!

We’ll discuss:
  • What it means to be a Title I school
  • How our Title I budget supports student learning
  • Our School-Parent Compact and Parent Engagement Plan
  • Opportunities to get involved and provide feedback

Light refreshments and beverages will be provided. We look forward to connecting with our K–5 families!

9th Annual Turkey Teacher Food Drive is underway now!

From November 1-18, help us fill our Backpack Program shelves and crown your favorite teacher as the new Turkey Teacher Champion!

  • Every donation earns points for your favorite teacher’s class.
  • Double points are for most-needed items like peanut butter crackers, ramen, and granola bars.
  • $1 = 5 points when given through your school’s PTO.
  • All items must be individually packaged.

Community Partners — We Need You Too!
This year, local businesses, churches, and civic groups can join the fun by becoming Turkey Teacher Grade-Level Sponsors.
 Choose a K-5 grade level, host your own mini-drive, and we’ll spotlight your support on district pages while your donations help students in need.

Let’s show our Cardinals that their community cares. Every item, every snack, and every dollar makes a difference for our students. 

As we work together on our Turkey Teacher Food Drive, we also want to share help that’s already here in Camden. 

If you or someone you know could use support this season, visit this page for local food pantries and free meal programs: https://bit.ly/4Asbtx9

Thank you to The Hub for compiling these resources. Every act of kindness matters - thank you for caring for our community.
