Good things are happening in Camden County Schools. Even though the progressive school system is one of the smallest in North Carolina, Camden County students have consistently scored well above the state-wide average on their end-of-grade, end-of-course and VoCATS tests. 

During the 2010-11 school year, Grandy Primary School, Camden Intermediate School, Camden County High School, and CamTech High School met all AYP target goals under the federally mandated No Child Left Behind.  This is an impressive mark noting the significant incease in the target goals.  In addition, Camden County High School achieved a proficiency mark of 83.9%, has a four-year cohort graduation rate of 91.8%, and was recognized as a School of Distinction by the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction.  Camden Middle School  achieved a proficiency mark of 85.3% and was also recognized as a School of Distinction.  CamTech High School achieved a proficiency mark of 83.9% and had an impressive graduation rate of 92.5%.  Grandy Primary was recognized as an Honor School of Excellence with a performance composite of 90.2%.  And for the second consecutive year, Camden Intermediate School was recognized as an Honor School of Excellence with a performance composite of 92.4%.  The 2010-11 school year was highlighted with an overall 4-year graduate rate of 90.7%, which ranks among the highest in the state.

As you can see, there is much to be proud of in the Camden County Schools.  The community provides tremendous support for the schools.  The support of the Camden Education Foundation and volunteers in Camden County has created an optimum working environment for staff, which makes it much easier for teachers to focus on the children.  The school system's motto, "Camden Keeps Kids First in Education," is more than words...it is the truth.  These organizations working together have already had a tremendous impact on the school system and have helped set the pace for what will be accomplished in the years to come.
