Mrs. McDonald's A.P. United States History students went to Frostburg State University to view an exhibit called "Hateful Things."  The exhibit showcased African American injustice during the Jim Crow era.

U.S. Army Reserve, 372nd Military Police Company, and Allegany County Center for Career and Technical Education students were instrumental in the restoration of a Maryland State Police Humvee vehicle that the department uses in extreme weather conditions. The vehicle was received in 2008 as surplus from the Army and since arriving at the barrack was still painted Army camouflage. Reservists handled mechanical and electrical issues and students painted the 1993 model vehicle.

McDonalds, in Cumberland, hosted the yearbook staff's second spirit night of the year. Proceeds go to the CCTE yearbook with hopes of publishing an all color yearbook. Rita's on National Highway hosted the first Spirit Night. The turn out was very good for both events. It was fun for all that participated. Devyn Twigg and Stephanie Epperly dressed up in the Ice Man costume hoping to draw the attention of passing vehicles. The CCTE Staff participated in the fundraiser and could be seen dancing on the sidewalk to songs like the Cupid Shuffle or the Dougie dance. The yearbook staff would like to thank all the customer’s that came out to help support the cause. The staff would also like to give a huge thank you to Rita’s and McDonalds.
