Cumberland Academy of Georgia Annual Fund for Extraordinary Students

We provide our students with the best school experience and fundraising is an essential component to continuing our exceptional education that gives our students life-changing opportunities.

The education and well-being of children with learning differences are of paramount importance for a compassionate and inclusive society. Recognizing the unique needs of these children, Cumberland Academy of Georgia plays a pivotal role in providing tailored education, support, and integrated therapeutic approaches to our students. However, the financial challenges faced by such institutions often hinder their ability to deliver high-quality programs and services. That is why the establishment of our Cumberland Academy of Georgia’s (CAG) Annual Fund for Excellence is crucial. This fund will bridge the financial gap and ensure a nurturing and enriching educational environment that empowers our students to reach their fullest potential.

The teachers are effective, empathetic and set high standards for their students.A big plus at the school is the large counseling staff available to help students and their families. At Cumberland they educate the whole child. We love the school and are impressed with how the administration, teachers and staff members continually work to improve the school. We moved from Birmingham, Alabama, so our daughter could attend. We also lived in Washington, DC for many years, and Cumberland Academy of Georgia is the best school for special needs that our daughter has attended.
