At Casady, all students are provided a foundation of excellence, which instills them with the educational and social skills to triumph in their future endeavors.
Selecting a school is one of the most important decisions a parent can make. At Casady, we take that investment seriously and work to provide our students a life of balance, purpose, and joy.
Casady's academic program provides our students the challenges and opportunities necessary to develop critical and creative thinking skills, the ability to plan, evaluate and implement actions, and most importantly, the support to nurture their passions.
Competitive athletics and physical education are central to the development of leadership and teamwork as well as self-confidence and respect for others.
Through the arts, students can learn valuable skills and talents that provide universal benefits and gain an understanding of a world deeper than they had previously believed. Fine arts programs are imperative in fostering creativity and inspiring the mind, as well as the imagination.
Casady's advancement initiatives help further the Mission of the School by supporting programs and activities that take place in the classroom, on the stage, or on the field.

NextGen Under 30 Winners
Three members of the Casady faculty have been named NextGen Under 30 winners. Mrs. Ashlynn Dickinson, Mrs. Karla Zuñiga, and Mrs. Karla Shirazi were recognized in the Education K-12 category of the program for their dedication and commitment to their students.
This recognition is well-deserved for these three hard-working teachers who make a difference for our children every day in the classroom and have made a significant impact on the Casady Community!
Ashlynn Dickinson, a nationally certified Kodaly Educator, is always striving to bring the best practices into her music program for Casady's Pre-K through 4th grade students. By investing time and energy into certification programs, Mrs. Dickinson believes these are an integral part of bringing engaging and meaningful learning to her classroom. When she works with students, Mrs. Dickinson strives for literacy through creativity, process through product, beauty through perfection, and meaningful relationships.
Karla Zuñiga teaches Spanish to Casady School’s youngest Cyclones in their Montessori-based program. During the 2018-2019 school year, Ms. Zuñiga started a Kindergarten Spanish Enrichment Class, which includes Spanish vocabulary, children’s literature, culture, and music. In the 2019-2020 school year, Ms. Zuñiga will be creating, developing, and expanding the Spanish curriculum in Pre-Kindergarten in addition to Kindergarten and will do it mindfully, intentionally, and thoughtfully. She has also created and taught Spanish camps during Casady’s Summer by the Lake program.
Karla Shirazi, a French teacher for Casady School’s fifth, seventh, and eighth grade students, has developed creative ways to engage and encourage her students to enhance their language skills. Mrs. Shirazi fosters an environment in which students learn while having fun. She has implemented a teaching method to convert her classroom to nearly 95% Comprehensible Input, which is considered key acquisition through meaningful interaction in a target language. Throughout the year Mrs. Shirazi’s students learn about phonetics in a non-traditional way that enhances their comprehension of words and sounds in French, while working on songs, poems, nursery rhymes, and tongue twisters.
