Extra Yearbooks for Sale
We have a small supply of extra yearbooks available for sale. They will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis and payment will reserve your copy. Yearbooks are $11 each and can be paid for with cash or check made out to Cushing PTO. Contact Mrs. Mirek to purchase a copy.
Check for Ticks
We are seeing an increase in ticks the last couple of weeks. Please make sure to check your kids when they come home from school.
Medication in Health Room
If your student has medication in our Health Room, please pick it up on the last day of school.
Soil Donations Needed
The Cushing Garden is in need of new soil. We are taking donations. Please drop them off near the garden if you'd like to contribute. Thanks!
Field Trip Fees
Please log into your Infinite Campus Parent Portal to check for any unpaid Field Trip and/or Chaperone Fees. Please make payment by the end of the school year. Thanks!
If you need financial assistance, please contact the principal. If you would like to financially assist another student with general field trip fees, you may donate using the optional fee ‘CE - Field Trip Financial Assist’ found in Infinite Campus.
Fifth Grade Farewell Information
Fifth grade parents and families are welcome to attend our Fifth Grade Farewell Ceremony at 9:30 on Thursday, June 6. Unfortunately, we do not have capacity for the younger Cushing student siblings. There is a school-wide "clap out" at 8:45 that our younger students will participate in to say goodbye to the fifth grade students. After the farewell ceremony, fifth grade students can take pictures outdoors with their families, classmates and teachers, and then leave for the day. Cushing does ask that younger siblings stay until the end of the day, which is 12:35.
Music Update
We wanted to share with our families that Mrs. Post will be transitioning to Magee Elementary School next school year to pursue a part-time opportunity as she starts her family. We are incredibly grateful for Mrs. Post's contributions to Cushing and the positive impact she has had on our students. We know she’ll do great at Magee and we wish her all the best as she embarks on this next chapter. Mrs. Cecilia Hassemer, the music teacher from Magee will be our new music teacher here at Cushing and we are looking forward to welcoming her next year to Cushing.
Lost & Found
We have a lot of Lost items waiting to be Found. If your child(ren) is missing something, there’s a real good chance it’s in our Lost & Found. The next time you’re at Cushing, swing by to see if anything belongs to your family. Parents seem to have the magic touch with finding lost items. Anything left after the end of the school year will be donated.
