Dear Cushman Families,

          Even though we have had a year with many challenges, we have been very successful in maintaining a full in-person teaching and learning enviroment.  Your children are amazing as they continue to follow all of our protocols with mask wearing, distancing and handwashing!  Our teachers continue to bring on their creativity in times of limited student collaboration, group exploration, and center work.  We look forward to the day when we can return to our round tables and our classroom centers.  If you haven't yet, you may want to reach out and give a shout out to your child's teacher for the work they do with your child each and every day. Living and teaching in these new times, is cutting edge and can be very demanding on many levels.  We are working together to build a school community that continues to celebrate our expectations:  Taking Care of Yourself, Taking Care of Others, and Taking Care of Our School.  We miss seeing our volunteers in the school and miss having our evening events.  

          We will be announcing our School year 2021-2022 preschoolers who have earned a spot for next year within the next week or two. Registration for kindergarten continues to be available on the District's website.  End of year activities will be planned according to our current health and safety guidance.   

                  We are having a great year!  Thank you for sharing your children with us!

 Reminder:  We are nearing our Spring Break which will run from Monday, April 19- Friday, April 23.  

Sincerely,

Dr. Dale

Early Childhood Director
