The Camden Difference

Tradition plays a crucial role in shaping our cadets. It provides a sense of belonging and continuity, connecting us to our past. By preserving Camden’s values, and practices, tradition fosters a camaraderie and brotherhood unlike anywhere else. Tradition also offers guidance in navigating life’s challenges, instilling wisdom and moral frameworks. In today’s society, tradition serves as an anchor, reminding us of our roots and reinforcing important lessons.

Founded in 1892, staying true to our foundation, Camden Military Academy values a traditional education. Camden Military believes that the use of textbooks, notebooks, pens, and paper remains vital in education for several reasons. They provide structured content that is carefully curated, ensuring students access reliable and comprehensive information. Unlike computers, textbooks minimize distractions, promoting focus and critical thinking. Additionally, studies have found that the tactile experience of handling a book can enhance retention and comprehension. Camden Military Academy implements technology in its classrooms using hardware and software provided and supervised by the teachers. Ultimately, Camden Military believes in a balanced approach to teaching and learning that includes both traditional textbooks and carefully monitored technology to enrich each cadet’s educational experience.
