Hello CAM Academy Students,

Do you know how to juggle, conduct a magic show, sing, play an instrument or have a specific talent you wish to share with our school? On January 19th from 6-8pm CAM Academy is hosting its first year of CAM’s Got Talent night to raise funds for future field trips. The show will be at Chief Middle School Commons. Any CAM student can participate in our talent show. We will be selling snacks and beverages at the show. Please see the dailies for links to sign up to be a participant of the talent show. There will also be a link to make donations to our snack sales. It is our hope, with our new campus, to bring our community together and have some fun on January 19th. Please see Mrs. Whitten or Mr. Nick for more information.
