The Camden County School System consists of nine(9)elementary
schools which house grades Pre-K through 5.
The Camden County School
System has a close relationship with Naval Submarine Base, Kings
Bay. Personnel from the Navy base continuously lend their expertise
to the school system at every grade leve. Sailors and Marines often
serve as tutors, install equipment, maintain school infrastructure and serve as
judges at the high school science fair.
Since 1979 the schools have grown
at a rate of around 300 students per year. For the 1999-2000 school
year, we expect over 10,000 students. In 1978-1979 the system had
only 2,800 students.
The Camden County Schools place emphasis on the
basic skills, however, we do have excellent programs in all areas of the
curriculum.
Georgia Law requires the following in order
to enroll in the Camden County Schools: (1) An Official Copy of the Child's
Birth Certificate (a copy can be made from the original at the school); (2) An
Official Certificate of Immunization (Georgia Form 3032); (3) An Official
Certificate of Eye, Ear and Dental Examination (Georgia Form 3300); and (4)
Social Security Card of the Student (Optional).
