About CHS 2010
CHS 2010 is a town-wide initiative designed to expand and improve facilities at Cumberland High School as well as address the deferred maintenance needs of the 40 year old facility. Funding for this project and other school related items will come from two bond issues approved by the voters of the Town of Cumberland. This collaborative effort between the Mayor's Office, School Committee and Town Council represents a true spirit of cooperation designed to construct four new classrooms and a wellness center. Additionally, this project will allow for the retrofit of spaces in the existing high school allowing for five additional classrooms as well as additional facilities for theater, art music, and technology.
A deferred maintenance priority list for Cumberland High School was updated by the Building Committee. The projects listed below will help to enhance this aging structure:
- Replace curtain walls
- Update electrical service
- Lighting upgrades
- Security Systems
- Technology wing upgrade
- Removal of asbestos
- Expansion of main media center
- New windows and doors
- Remodel and expand cafeteria
- Repave selected areas
- Create English/Technology Center in transitional building
- Americans with Disabilities modifications

- Pool - painting of locker rooms, etc.
- Lavatory renovations
- Air conditioning select areas (i.e. computer labs, library)
