Staff Reimbursement Guidelines & Forms
Staff School Materials Reimbursement
The Cushing PTO provides reimbursement of school materials to every full-time teacher and grade level/specialist team of the school. These Staff School Materials Reimbursements are provided to make sure that school staff do not have to dip into their own pockets to purchase class items. All items purchased using PTO funds are for educational and classroom use only and become the property of Cushing Elementary School as a gift from the PTO.
Reimbursement Budget:
The 2021-2022 budget provides for $200 for full-time staff and $200 to be split amongst each grade level team/ specialist team. If you are unsure of your reimbursement classification, please reach out to confirm before purchasing reimbursable items. This budgeted amount will be reimbursed once a year for all staff.
What Items are Reimbursed:
The primary purpose of the Staff School Materials Reimbursement is to provide money to teachers to use throughout the school year for small and/or consumable items for their classrooms.
Teachers should not use the Staff School Materials Reimbursement for activities outside the classroom or for larger expenditures on items that will remain in the classroom past the end of the school year.
Examples of supplies that are would be reimbursed in a typical school year include: art supplies for a class project, small games or learning tools, supplies for a classroom experiment, etc. These items are meant to be used by the students for educational purposes.

1. Teachers can submit to be reimbursed only one time a year.

Beyond the Reimbursement
We want to hear from you. Last year a few teachers came to us with specific requests that would benefit their students beyond this one time reimbursement program. We are glad to consider any requests that come our way. While we may not be able to fulfill every request, we will bring each request to the board for consideration.
Email those requests to cushingptotreasurers@gmail.com.
