Jump Rope & Playground Ball Collection
Do you feel like you have too many jump ropes and playground balls? Maybe your child received several from Jump Rope For Heart! Well the Cushing PTO is here to help take those off your hands. The week of April 3, one of your Cushing PTO members will be waiting at the carline after school to take any unwanted jump ropes and playground balls. No need to inflate playground balls if they aren’t yet. We’ll take care of that!! Simply spot us (we’ll make it easy) standing by the stop sign where the buses pass through. For questions please contact [email protected].
Spirit Wear Friday Is Back
Show us your Cushing pride!! Every Friday our Cushing Staff wears spirit wear and we’re inviting all students to join in and match the staff. Students may wear Cushing gear, decathlon shirts or anything blue and gold. Let’s see a sea of Cushing pride every Friday!
Clear Out Your Garage
Your friendly and helpful Cushing PTO is once again helping you declutter. As you are spring cleaning your garage or basement, if you find any outdoor games that you would like to donate to the school, we would happily take them. The Cushing PTO is trying to help the teachers and recess supervisors by finding fun things for the students to do once the playground demolition starts this spring. So if you have anything you’d like to donate, we would sincerely appreciate it. For questions please contact [email protected].
Cushing Playground Needs & UPDATES
The Cushing playground will be removed soon in preparation for our new playground coming this fall! To help our kids have fun at recess while the equipment is down, please take a look at our Playground Wish List. Items purchased directly from this Amazon wish list will be automatically mailed to Cushing for your convenience. The wish list can also be used as inspiration for donations of unused toys from home or deals you might spot elsewhere (for example, Five Below has a lot of playground toys for sale right now!). Thank you for considering!
We received an update this week that prep work will be starting over spring break. Over spring break, 6 foot fencing will be installed surrounding the playground equipment site, extending northwest towards the nature trail / tree line. This area will be blocked off for the remainder of the school year and will be off limits to ensure safety of all students. Removal of all the old playground equipment will commence at any point within the next few days / weeks, depending upon the ground temperatures and weather. I can assure you that construction equipment will be entering from the front parking lot, along the tree line into the fenced-in area, and will not interfere with the safety and designated recess play areas.
