The Cumberland School Committee approved a package of superintendent authorizations, contracts, and resolutions on June 25, 2026.
Miss Smith presented a superintendent authorization for a CHA transition curriculum contract to support CHS trades-program students (particularly those in transition services); fiscal subcommittee had recommended approval 3–0 and the committee approved the authorization 7–0.
The committee also approved an event contract guaranteeing a $12,500 hold for a 2027 senior prom vendor; Miss Smith noted the district would be contractually responsible for the hold if tickets sold did not cover the payment. The board approved that authorization 7–0.
Miss Smith additionally moved approval of an authorization for EIUS LLC d/b/a Learn Well to provide supplemental tutors for 2026–27 at a fee of $76 per hour for computer-based tutoring; the committee approved the authorization 7–0. Miss Smith said the agreement serves as a safety net to provide tutors when district-trained staff are not immediately available.
The board then approved 18 resolutions (SCPR062026-050 through -067) that had been reviewed in fiscal subcommittee; item 050 had been tabled at a prior meeting pending additional information. Miss Smith moved passage of the entire package and the vote was unanimous, 7–0.
Finally, the committee approved payment of bills (Chartwells) totaling $264,116; Miss Smith noted next month’s single meeting will include all remaining monthly payments. The payment motion passed 7–0.
