Dress For Recess Requirements - In order for our in-person students to play in the snow during lunch recess, they must wear boots, snow pants, hat/hood, and gloves. Students who are not wearing these items will be limited to the blacktop and cement areas so that they do not get wet. We strongly suggest sending in an additional set of clothing for your child just in case. For safety, students will continue to be limited to their assigned play area each day and with the same group of students.
MAP Reports Home - 3rd-5th grade Winter MAP Reports will be emailed home to parents today. If you have questions or do not receive the information contact your child's classroom teacher.
Kindergarten Registration - Registration for all kindergarteners for the upcoming school year will take place online very soon. If you know someone in the Cumberland attendance area who has a child that will be 5 years old on or before September 1, 2021, please have them contact the school office at (847) 824-1451. We will make sure they receive the information as it becomes available.
