Casady School's founders believed that mind, body, and spirit are at the core of an exceptional education. Each of these pillars is central to the School's mission statement that we
develop excellence, confidence, and integrity in students and prepare them with the skills and knowledge that serve as the foundation for success.Specific to Athletics and Physical Education,
we believe that competitive athletics and physical education are central to the development of leadership and teamwork, as well as self-confidence and respect for others. Our students are participants rather than simply spectators. Casady provides healthy and competitive opportunities that are critical to developing an appreciation for wellness and fitness in each student.Since the Board of Trustees announced the decision to move the majority of sports to the Oklahoma Secondary School Activities Association in December 2021, Casady strengthened its athletic foundation with a new administrative structure, a focus on core strength and performance training, and the development of a campus master plan focused on athletics.
Casady's Strategic Athletic Plan is built on the five pillars of Character, Sportsmanship, Development, Community Engagement, and Wellness. The School is committed to the athletics program and developing all of our students in PreK through 12 to embrace healthy, active, and wellness lifestyles.
To support these initiatives, two projects emerged as priorities through master campus planning and strategic review of our athletics program. The Mathis Family Strength and Performance Center opened in June 2024 and serves all Cyclones. In addition, a water-based turf field hockey field for one of the core programs of our School opened for play this spring and features Edwards Field and Payne Family Stadium.
