The 8th Annual Turkey Teacher Food Drive Ends This Wednesday!

Help us fill our Backpack Program shelves - and crown your child’s teacher the new Turkey Teacher Champion!
  • Every donation earns points for your student’s class.
  • Double points for most-needed items like peanut butter crackers, ramen, and granola bars.
  • $1 = 5 points when given through your school’s PTO.
  • All items must be individually packaged.

Community Partners — We Need You Too!
  • This year, local businesses, churches, and civic groups can join the fun by becoming Turkey Teacher Grade-Level Sponsors.
  • Choose a K-5 grade level, host your own mini-drive, and we’ll spotlight your support on district pages while your donations help students in need.
  • Email Allison at alawson@cfcards.net to claim your grade level.
Let’s show that Cardinals care - every item, every snack, every dollar makes a difference.

As we work together on our Turkey Teacher Food Drive, we also want to share help that’s already here in Camden. If you or someone you know could use support with food this season, visit this page for local food pantries and free meal programs.

Thank you to The Hub for compiling these resources. Every act of kindness matters - thank you for caring for our community.

Clear Bag Policy. Camden Fairview School District has implemented a Clear Bag Policy that limits the size and type of bags that may be brought into stadiums, gymnasiums and other athletic fields.* Prohibited items include but are not limited to purses larger than a 4.5” x 6.5” clutch bag, coolers, briefcases, backpacks, fanny packs, grocery bags, cinch bags, luggage of any kind, computer bags, and camera bags, or any bag larger than the permissible size.

Student Conduct. K-5 grade students must be supervised by an adult at all CFSD athletic events. All students, home and visiting, are expected to be on their best behavior while attending any school event. Students will be removed from events if they are involved in any fights, act disrespectfully toward administrators or other school personnel, or if any prohibited items are found on them or in their vehicle. All students must be picked up within 20 minutes of the end of any event

We appreciate your support and look forward to good sportsmanship from everyone. Please contact CFSD Athletic Director Nick Vaughn at nvaughn@cfcards.net with any questions or concerns. Thank you.
