📌 Post-Game

The Cardinals will remain on the field after the handshake line for the after-game address from Coach Vaughn. Cardinal families and friends, please wait at the 50-yard line gate to enter the field. The gate will be opened once the El Dorado team has left the field and Coach Vaughn is finished addressing the Cardinals. Families should also leave the field through the 50-yard line gate and then exit through the stadium gates. There will be no access to the field house area.

The Wildcats will leave the field after the handshake line and go to the visitor locker room. El Dorado families may see their players by the CFHS Multipurpose Building roll-top door.

We appreciate your support and look forward to great sportsmanship from all fans. For questions, contact Athletic Director Nick Vaughn at nvaughn@cfcards.net.

Go Cardinals! ❤️🤍

Update to CFHS Lunch Schedules

Posted Date: 8/24/25 (7:30 PM)

Dear CFHS Families:

Beginning this week, Camden Fairview High School will return to a three-lunch schedule. We are making this adjustment to address concerns about overcrowding with the two-lunch system and to ensure both easier supervision for staff and a more comfortable dining environment for students. The revised bell schedule is now available here on our website

On Monday morning, administrators will meet with students to discuss lunch expectations and preview which classes will be released to each lunch. A reminder will be shared with students and staff before lunches begin to clarify the schedule. 

Thank you for your support as we make this adjustment to ensure the best possible learning environment for our Cardinals.
