Elementary and Middle School students in the Camden Central School District are once again stocking up for their summer reading endeavors through the generosity of the Tuthill Foundation Grant. For a sixth year, the District is pleased to host a Free Summer Reading Book Fair at Camden Elementary School, McConnellsville Elementary School, and Camden Middle School.
This year, the Fair is running from May 28th to June 4th at McConnellsville Elementary School, and from May 30th to June 6th at Camden Elementary School. The Middle School fair will run during the first week of June.
As part of the fair, each student receives a free 25 dollar credit to spend on heavily discounted books. Students will visit the fair during their normally scheduled library times. No other purchases beyond the 25 dollar credit will be allowed, so there is no need to send money in with your child.
The Tuthill Foundation operates to carry on the legacy of longtime Camden residents Virginia and Stedman Tuthill, who believed in supporting educators and students. Through their generosity, our students can continue to have access to books throughout the summer months regardless of their available resources, and build reading comprehension skills by reading in subject areas that interest them.
The District is thankful for the Tuthill family for continuing to provide this generous support to its students, and eternally grateful to Virginia and Stedman Tuthill for keeping our schools in mind as part of their legacy.
