After School Programs
If your student is participating in any after school program at Cushing, please send an email to their teacher and Mrs. Mirek ([email protected]) every week to let us know your child has permission to stay after school that day. An email every week helps if there is a substitute in the classroom. It also can lessen afternoon dismissal confusion.

5th Grade Overnight Trip
This year, the district has made the decision to offer each 5th grade student an overnight experience and Cushing 5th grade students will be going on an overnight trip to Camp Edwards in early May. Though the location of the trip has changed, it is exciting that these students will be able to have an overnight, outdoor educational experience with their peers. More information will be shared with fifth grade families in the coming weeks.
