The Lincoln Prairie Conference hosted its Outstanding Senior Athletes Luncheon on April 15 at Yoder’s in Arthur. Each school selected two seniors who have distinguished themselves through excellence in both academics and athletics.

Mr. Huffman and Mr. Roedl selected Owen McGinnis and Natalie Beaumont in recognition of their exceptional high school careers. Their success in wrestling, along with their many other athletic and academic accomplishments, set them apart as leaders and role models.

Owen and Natalie stood out among an impressive group of student-athletes from across the conference. We are incredibly proud of them and the example they have set for others.

The CHS Community Living / Community Service class just wrapped up a great community service project! ✂️🧵

Students worked hard to sew 20 pencil zipper bags, which were delivered to the Cumberland Elementary principal to be shared with students who may need them. They filled them with some goodies like sharpened pencils and Chapstick.

This project was a great way for students to build real-life skills while giving back to our school community. A big thank you to those who donated materials to help make this possible. We truly appreciate your support! 💙

Cumberland High School seniors spent the day giving back to the community by helping clean up Mullens Cemetery and the Toledo Cemetery. To wrap up the day, students shifted from service to creativity by painting tiles for the Growing with Greenup: Community Roots mural. They ended their time together by enjoying some well-earned pizza. We are proud of these students for making a positive impact and representing our school so well!

In Bio 1, students have been studying Darwin and his theory of evolution. Focusing on the evolution of horses, students looked at how horse fossils have changed over time, with a key focus on their teeth. They learned how their diet changed over time. The students tried grinding leaves and grass to understand why horse teeth had to adapt to this changing diet.
