Cushing Wins Award at DECA Event

Abby Nix, Bella Testa, Ainsley DiTomaso, Will Egan, Shawn Kelly, and Shea Frost. DECA awarded them the prize for most unique presentation!

When the Cushing vocational department attended a recent DECA (Distributive Education Clubs of America) Life Skills event at Scituate High School, the students showcased the vocation and employability skills that they had been working on. The event was attended by several other Special Education school programs, including Scituate, Hingham, Marshfield, and Weymouth; Cushing School was the only private school to attend.

Each attending organization was asked to perform a skit, and Cushing chose to perform a mock customer interaction at the Cushing Café. Students performing included Abby Nix, Bella Testa, Ainsley DiTomaso, Will Egan, Shawn Kelly, and Shea Frost. DECA awarded them the prize for most unique presentation!
