"My son attended Casis from kindergarten to fifth grade and he is graduating Wednesday. I can't say enough good things about the wonderful caring teachers at Casis in every class my son was in. I never for a minute doubted the quality of education and the quality of treatment my son was receiving. Every member of the staff actually really cares about the job they are doing as evidenced by the tenure of the teachers and all of the staff there, as well as the comaraderie of the parents. I was a student at Casis also when they had a 6th grade (wish they still did). They are first rate all the time and I highly recommend this school to any parent that wishes a great education and positive environment for their child. The parents level of involvement is also very high which helps things immensely. We've had a wonderful experience there. It is not only a place of learning, it is a place of fun and wonderful memories. It is with a bit of sadness that we are leaving. I will miss everyone there."

"The Principal, the Assistant Principal and the teachers make this school the wonderful place it is. The quality of teaching in this school is exemplary and so is the caring of the people who work here."

"I have three children at Casis and we love it. The students grow in an environment that nurtures self-confidence and independence. This self-confidence translates into academics which is apparent in their test scores. It is true that most students are from affluent families, but there are also a good number of middle income families who have bought smaller homes because of the school (including our family) who are perfectly happy here. My children have a lot close friends from school (in all income brackets) and have not had any experience of being left out just because of social status or what they are wearing. I highly recommend this school."

"For general ed kids, this school is great. If you are not rich, realize that most of the kids that go here are wealthy, so there's some potential for a stigma attached to a kid who does not wear all name brand clothing, etc. The teachers here are top notch, excellent. The Principal is all about pleasing his 'elite' parent population of politicicians kids. If your child has special needs, realize you are up for a huge fight to mainstream them here unless you are related to someone who has some political power or big financial means. It's sad that it's like that because this school has more resources than any other school in the district. You'd think they'd be ready to help out a child who needs it. Gen ed= A++ Best EC!"
