Supper for Science 2013


“Supper for Science 2013” was a huge success for the Central Cambria School District. Click on the Smilebox to see photos from the eighteen restaurants that participated in the event on March 7, 2013. Over seventy volunteers helped to raise funding for Science education at both Cambria and Jackson Elementary Schools. We successfully raised over $5,000.00! Our community supports quality educational programs for our children. Thank you to everyone who helped make the evening fun for our elementary students and their families! If you would like to donate to the science program throughout the school year, simply send a tax deductable contribution check written to the Central Cambria Education Foundation to either elementary school in an envelope marked CCEF. Please note on the check that you would like the donation applied to the elementary science program. Thank you!

Sincerely,

Dr. Lansberry and Mrs. Murin

Cambria Elementary Receives "A Unique Look at Diversity in Their School Community"


Mr. Bruce Haselrig from Johnstown, PA visited Cambria Elementary School on Friday, February 22, 2013 to help educate students and faculty about diversity. The title of Bruce's presentation was A Unique Look at Diversity in Your School Community.  Bruce asked the students to stand and tell others why their names were unique and special. Hobbs stood before the group and told everyone that his name was chosen by his parents from an old cartoon character. Several other students shared why their names were special too. All students in grades K-5 participated in several additional activities presented by Mr. Haselrig. Bruce plans to return to Cambria Elementary in the future weeks to work closely with students during their class guidance lessons. He will be partnering with our school Guidance Counselor, Kate Wolf, to enhance our students' understanding and appreciation of diversity within our school setting. We would like to thank our PTO for providing funding for this program.

All Central Cambria School District families and friends are invited to dine out on March 7th between 5:00-7:00pm to help support the hands-on, minds-on inquiry-based elementary science program at Cambria and Jackson Elementary Schools.
