We are establishing a food delivery process for families that cannot get to one of the three distribution sites. We prefer participation in the drive-thru process at one of the distribution sites (Randolph Fire Department, front of CMS, and Cartersville Rescue Squad building) from 10:00 a.m. - 12:00 noon; however, we do understand that some families or childcare providers are unable to get to the sites. If you are unable to get to a distribution site, please call your child’s school at 492-4212 between the hours of 2:00-3:00 p.m. and request a delivery for the next day. We will arrange meal delivery.
Again, we prefer distribution through the drive-thru process; however, we do understand that this is not possible for all families. It is our hope to provide meals for every student at Cumberland County Public Schools and we encourage each family to participate.

Beginning tomorrow, Tuesday, March 17, 2020, breakfast and lunch bags for CuCPS students will be available each weekday from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon at three locations: the Randolph Fire Department, in front of CMS, and at the Cartersville Rescue Squad building.
Distribution will be done in a drive-thru manner. You will not need to get out of your car. We will bring the bagged meals to you. We ask that you keep the drive-thru lines moving.
Learning packets will be mailed home on Wednesday. Please be on the lookout for your child’s packet. Your child’s Report Card will be included in the packet.
As information evolves, plans may change. Thank you for being understanding, patient, and flexible. Stay safe and healthy. Thank you.
The Technology Advisory Committee meeting scheduled for Tuesday, March 17, 2020, has been cancelled. For those committee members interested in providing feedback, the plan may be viewed on the division's technology page.

Governor Northam has just ordered all schools to be closed for a minimum of two weeks. CuCPS will be closed from March 16, 2020, to March 27, 2020.
We will keep in touch with families through our alert system, webpage, and social media throughout this time period in regards to instructional and food services for our students.
