Cambria Elementary students invited to Steeler Football Clinic

As a reward for winning a Fuel Up to Play 60 Activity Scavenger Hunt Challenge, 18 students were selected to attend a football clinic at the training facility for the Pittsburgh Steelers on the South Side.  Students participated in a punt, pass, and kick contest, then toured the Steeler weight training and rehab facility.  The six Super Bowl trophies were viewed behind glass walls.  Before being served lunch, the students received autographs from Pittsburgh Steeler Cameron Heyward.  The day was filled with the excitement of being on the hallowed grounds of our beloved local NFL team.

Officer to stay at Central Cambria

The Central Cambria School  District is pleased to confirm that through the generous donations of our parents, local police departments, township supervisors, and the Education Association, an officer will remain on the High School/Middle School campus for the remainder of the school year.
Ms. Jo-Ann Semko, CCEA President, presented a check for $500 to the CC Administration during a coordination meeting with representatives from Cambria Township Supervisors and Cambria Township Police Department.

"The Central Cambria teachers chose to make this donation because we have dedicated our lives to the children of this community and their safety, well being, and peace of mind is of tremendous importance to each of us."

The officer is available to assist in any of the four school buildings if needed, and provides an added measure of security to the District's Comprehensive Safe Schools Planning.

African Map

Third grade students experienced a Large Map of Africa that was on display in the Cambria Elementary School gym on May 16^th. This learning opportunity was provided by The Learning Lamp with funding provided by our PTO. We would like to thank the Learning Lamp, Christie Cuppett, and our PTO for providing this fun learning experience for our third grade students.   Amanda Peretin from the Learning Lamp stated, “It was great to see the third graders engaged and actively learning about other places in our world.  Many of the third graders impressed me with their knowledge of Africa.  They knew about animals, natural features, and many other geographical facts.”
