Mrs. Campbell's high school health classes have learned some lifesaving skills! The students learned how to perform CPR on infants, children, and adults. They know what to do if someone is choking, and they have learned how to use an AED. They gained valuable skills and confidence to respond in an emergency.

They were tested in several different areas of forestry, such as tree identification, timber cruising, map reading, equipment identification, forestry disorders, chainsaw parts, and a general knowledge exam.

Cumberland Middle and High School students and staff had the opportunity to listen to the inspiring story this week of Brad Hurtig, a double-hand amputee who went from a tragic injury to All-State in high school football. Brad presented a powerful message to the students to find a way!
Brad was injured while he was still in high school during his evening job in a factory. As he was recovering, he attended his high school football practices as an observer on the sidelines. He was influenced by his football coach one day when he taught him that, “If you are thirsty enough, you will find a way.” With this message, he learned not to give in to his fears and ultimately go for his goals.
He shared this message with the students, encouraging them to find a way when things are tough...

Are you a fan of cookies or brownies? How about both? The Foods III students made Brookies recently! Brookies are a dessert that combines a brownie with a cookie. Each group selected their own recipe, and both recipes were delicious!
