Congratulations to Andrew Thumma, Database Administrator for Cumberland Valley School District, who was recently one of six school employees from across the country to receive a Leader in Excellence Award from Skyward (our Student Information System). Mr. Thumma, a member of our Technology Department, was nominated for this award by both a Skyward employee and a colleague in another district. As part of the nomination, it was said that "Andrew's knowledge of the database and report manager is extraordinary" and "his willingness to share his expertise with others is commendable."

We recently welcomed Associated Press writer Marc Levy to CV, where he interviewed Cumberland Valley High School senior Jody Mikhail as part of a national story on the rise of girls' wrestling in schools across the country. Read more about Jody (who also happens to be our 2023 Homecoming Queen) and our girls' wrestling program, and view more photos, in Mr. Levy's article available here: https://tinyurl.com/mu35ntkc.

Dreams DO come true, and five of our Cumberland Valley High School seniors were on hand to make the moment even more magical. Seniors Julianne Canete, Aidan Metz, Nick Perry, Zach Runkle, and Carissa Williams, who are part of our Cumberland Valley High School Musical Productions, were honored to bring Disney theater magic to a cherished moment for a young princess when she learned that her wish to visit Walt Disney World had been granted. Dressed as Disney princes and princesses, our students were honored to join Capital Blue Cross and Make-A-Wish Philadelphia, Delaware and Susquehanna Valley in helping to make this life-changing wish become a reality. These are moments that will never be forgotten.
