Principal's Message
Dear Parents,
With the holiday season quickly approaching, the season of giving is here as well. Camp Avenue School is participating in the Kiwanis Holiday Toy Drive, and our Student Council is also donating all of the pajamas that were generously donated during the Pajama Drive. The student council will be running a coat drive the first week of December. Camp Avenue will also be collecting canned/boxed food for Long Island Cares as many in our communities are in need of food for the Holidays.
Our report cards, for grades 1-6, will be able to be viewed on the Parent Portal on December 7th at 3:00 PM. If you have trouble viewing them, please contact the main office and we will be able to help you. Please note, Kindergarten report cards are posted January 26th.
There is not a PTA meeting in the month of December. Our next PTA meeting will be on January 18th. We hope you can attend.
On behalf of the Camp Avenue family, we wish you and your family a very happy and healthy holiday season.
Sincerely,
Hillary Bromberg, Ed.D.
