Description

The Walk-A-Thon is one of the Cumberland PTO’s biggest fundraisers of the year! Students get to show their pride for our school by pledging to follow the Cougar Code:

Be a Buddy
Be Respectful
Be Safe
Be Responsible

It’s the perfect way to end the school year and boost school spirit. Students are asked to raise donations from friends, family, and neighbors that want to support our Cumberland Cougar spirit.

Students and teachers will walk in solidarity to live by the Cougar Code during the Walk-a-thon on Friday, May 12th 1:30pm during school.

Donations raised from this event are used to fund the Paw Market and Positive Behaviors, Interventions, Support (PBIS) Celebrations, and Teacher requests.

Please consider supporting this event in order for the PTO to continue to provide excellent programs that extend beyond classroom curriculum and makes Cumberland a great place to go to school!

Last year our students raised $16,000 that went to fund and support our programs through out the school year and they have made it a goal this year to try to reach $20,000, with your support we hope to meet that goal.

We thank you for the support you give to our school and our community.

 

The purpose and objectives of the Cumberland Parent Teacher Organization  are:
 To enhance the academic and social opportunities of the students at the Cumberland School so as to positively affect their total educational experience at Cumberland School.
Assist, develop and implement those academic and social activities, which will broaden the student’s education and social experience.
To bring into closer relation the home and the school, that parents and teachers may cooperate intelligently in the education and social development of children and youth.

The objectives of the PTO are promoted through educational programs directed toward students, parents, teachers, and the public
