We couldn't be happier that we had three kids ('20-'22-'24) graduate from Cushing ! What a beautiful setting for kids to attend Prep school. Academically strong with great sports and arts programs and a campus that just keeps on getting nicer ! Our kids loved Cushing and called it their home away from home, and we loved visiting. It really did prepare our kids for college which is exactly what we were looking for in a prep school. We highly recommend a visit and you will leave saying WOW ! Brad and Lil McFadden

Cushing Academy caters to the wealthy and does not offer scholarships at all to well deserved, high honors, athletically driven students of moderate income,my experience and observations proved this. Very Disappointing.... I am not sure of their formula for financial assistance but I am choosing better alternatives for 24/25.

Cushing provides an excellent academic schedule with kind, compassionate, helpful teachers that want your child to succeed.
