Support the Camden Fairview Education Association's Annual Coat Drive!
Tis the season for warmth! The Camden Fairview Education Association is doing its annual coat drive where we ask our members and partners in our community to donate new or slightly used coats/jackets/hoodies. This is to help our CFSD kids who are in need and will need a winter coat for the cold days ahead.

You may drop off your donation to the Early Childhood Center on December 17th or ask a CFEA member to deliver a coat on your behalf.

Please be sure that the coat is washed and free of tags before you give them away! Let's give warmth and comfort to our children for the holidays!

​​Important reminders for all CFSD events ​ ​
All students are expected to be on their best behavior and follow all school policies, including the dress code, while attending school events. Students will be banned from after school activities if they are involved in any fights, disrespectful towards administration or any school personnel, or if any prohibited items are found on them or in their vehicles during an event.

6-12 grade students will have 20 minutes after school activities end to leave campus. Students should notify parents ahead of time to let them know what time the activity will end. Announcements are made prior to the activity ending to remind students to contact parents.

We appreciate your support and look forward to cheering on all Cardinal student-athletes together!
 
attendance matters
Attendance Matters! Let's Show Up Together This School Year.
At Camden Fairview, we believe that #AttendanceMatters and that absences are lost opportunities to learn in the classroom. Let's work together to make sure students are at school every day possible! Some absences are unavoidable, but it’s important that students are at school from bell-to-bell as often as possible.

Beginning in kindergarten, regular attendance is often an indicator of higher academic performance. Students who are at #SchoolEveryDay also do better academically in middle school and are more likely to graduate high school.

Join us to learn more about 2025-26 calendar options & CFHS/CFMS cell phone policy updates.
2025-26 Calendar Options:
2025-2026 Calendar Options. For the 2025-26 school calendar, CFSD is considering calendars with start dates of July 30, August 6, and August 13.





These calendars are samples for discussion purposes only. The final calendar options will be voted on by CFSD employees and presented to the CFSD School Board.
 
CFHS/CFMS Cell Phone Policy Updates:
CFHS/CFMS Cell Phone Policy Updates. We are beginning a conversation about making CFHS and CFMS phone-free spaces to improve teaching and learning using a program called Yondr. While we believe that cell phones can be useful tools, we also strongly believe there are potentially negative impacts on students’ educational and emotional well-being when cell phone usage disrupts the school day. Use the link below to learn more and complete a short survey.

 
Share your thoughts!
We want to hear from you on these important issues that impact everyone at Camden Fairview, so please complete these short surveys.

Attendance Matters!
​​​​Let's Show Up Together This School Year.
Why is regular attendance important? Because every second counts! 90% attendance may sound good; however, it is the equivalent of missing half a day of school each week.

At Camden Fairview, we believe that #AttendanceMatters and that absences are lost opportunities to learn in the classroom. Some absences are unavoidable, but it’s important that students are at school from bell-to-bell as often as possible.

Beginning in kindergarten, regular attendance is often an indicator of higher academic performance. Students who are at #SchoolEveryDay also do better academically in middle school and are more likely to graduate high school.

​​Important reminders for all CFSD events ​ ​
All students are expected to be on their best behavior and follow all school policies, including the dress code, while attending school events. Students will be banned from after school activities if they are involved in any fights, disrespectful towards administration or any school personnel, or if any prohibited items are found on them or in their vehicles during an event.

6-12 grade students will have 20 minutes after school activities end to leave campus. Students should notify parents ahead of time to let them know what time the activity will end. Announcements are made prior to the activity ending to remind students to contact parents.

We appreciate your support and look forward to cheering on all Cardinal student-athletes together!
 
attendance matters
Attendance Matters! Let's Show Up Together This School Year.
At Camden Fairview, we believe that #AttendanceMatters and that absences are lost opportunities to learn in the classroom. Let's start the year off right - at school every day possible! Some absences are unavoidable, but it’s important that students are at school from bell-to-bell as often as possible.

Beginning in kindergarten, regular attendance is often an indicator of higher academic performance. Students who are at #SchoolEveryDay also do better academically in middle school and are more likely to graduate high school.
