GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

My experience was fantastic, each teacher had a great way to teach and learn about their students, unfortunately I was not all four years of high school in CAHS but the only two years that I was there, I had alot of fun and knowledge. To conclude, something that learn and never forget is this phrase no gaps no breaks LETS GO KNIGHTS!!

I have been going to Cumberland since 2nd grade, and the school has its ups and downs. If you are someone interested in the arts this is definitely the school for you. It has smaller class sizes, and most teachers are there for you.

Gun threats are treated lightly, bullying and sexual assault among students is not acknowledged. Very few teachers a...

It was good at first, but progressively got worse and worse. I’d go into detail but theres just too much to put.
