This produced a student-teacher ratio of 15.17:1.[1] For the 2010\u20132011 school year, out of the student total, the gender ratio was 50% male to 40% female. The demographic group makeup was: White, 79%; Black, 13%; Hispanic, 3%; American Indian, 0%; and Asian\/Pacific Islander, 1% (two or more races: 3%).[4] For the same school year, 31.22% of the students received free and reduced-cost lunches.[5]Governance[edit]The primary governing body of Camden County Schools follows a council\u2013manager government format with a five-member Board of Education appointing a Superintendent to run the day-to-day operations of the system. The school system currently resides in the North Carolina State Board of Education’s First District.[6]Board of Education[edit]The five members of the Board of Education generally meet on the second Thursday of each month. The current members of the board are: Chris M. Wilson (chair), Christian Overton (Vice-chair), Steve M. Needham, Jason A.
