Living and learning in a boarding school environment provides endless opportunities to engage in the community outside of daily classes. Whether through dorm life, meals in the dining hall, weekend trips or extracurricular activities, students develop lasting friendships and essential life skills in a close-knit and welcoming community.
The Cushing Academy Summer Session community shares a long-standing and rich tradition of gathering together in the Academy’s Dining Commons for daily meals, lively conversation, and good company. We offer hot entrees, soups, salads, a fully-stocked deli, a stir-fry bar, and a tempting pizza station, plus plenty of fruits and sweets. Our chefs are keenly aware of our community’s tastes and preferences and prepare healthy and varied meals each day, including vegetarian, vegan, and glutenfree options.
