Cumberland Family Academy provides FREE workshops and educational events for CCS families. From research, we understand that students achieve more when families are involved in their education. When families have high expectations for children and encourage them to work hard, they support and promote a child’s academic, social and emotional well-being. The purpose of the Family Academy program is to provide families with the necessary academic tools to support the success of their child’s education and to bring schools, parents/guardians, families, and community organizations together as equal partners.

Cumberland Family Academy hosts workshops on a variety of topics. 

The sessions will take place virtually at 6 p.m. on Thursdays. Families can join each session, where they will be able to participate and ask questions. Additionally, CCS will post an encore of each session on the district’s Facebook page and YouTube channel on the following Tuesday.

Cumberland Family Academy is part of priority four of the district’s strategic plan, which calls for the development of a district-wide family engagement outreach program. This initiative will provide parents with additional tools to support their child’s education and will bring schools, parents, caregivers and community organizations together as equal partners.
