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.
