About Mr. Cusack

Hello,

I am Mr. Cusack, the new 7th and 8th grade social studies teacher. I am excited to join NPCS and look forward to working closely with my new colleagues, students, and families this year.

A little about me:

I grew up in PA and CT and went to college in Boston, MA. I lived and worked in NYC for twenty-two years, changed careers, and have been teaching for fifteen years. I am coming from Houghton Academy, School 69, where I taught for twelve years. It’s amazing to be working in the neighborhood my father grew up in and where I visited my grandparents during my childhood.

My goal as a social studies teacher is to help all my students develop strong self-confidence, learn how to think, not what to think, and engage in responsible citizenship through participation in our democracy. Oh, and have fun doing it!
