Cumberland County is located in the heart of Virginia's vast, rich agricultural belt. Many areas of life within the county are influenced by our rural lifestyle. Our students enjoy the many recreational activities provided by Bear Creek Lake State Park. The State Park is conveniently located four miles from the public school campus.

Cumberland County Public School System is a small, rural, fully accredited, model school division located one hour west of Richmond, Virginia. Approximately 1,500 students attend one high school, one middle school and one elementary school. Cumberland Public Schools has over 125 devoted classroom teachers, librarians, guidance counselors and other teaching personnel focused on meeting the educational needs of all students.

The School Board is committed to providing the human and capital resources, which are necessary for teachers and staff members to implement an instructional program that is rigorous and challenging for all students.

The mission of Cumberland County Public Schools is to partner with the family and community to provide every student with the opportunity for a first class education in a safe, respectful environment.
