MISSION STATEMENT
To provide a safe, secure basic skills environment where ALL students achieve sufficiently to insure success at the next level as they become responsible citizens.
The student dress code has not changed from last school year:
"Students at the Center for Academic Success Elementary/Middle School (K-8) will be expected to conform to a uniform dress code. This uniform code shall consist of red, white or blue polo shirts for tops, and khaki or denim shorts, pants, or skirts for bottom attire."
We would also like to take this opportunity to remind you that CAS does not require its students, or their parents, to provide any school supplies.
Breakfast and hot lunch will be offered to all students beginning August 4th. We will continue to offer a free “CAS CARE” program that will have structured activities in addition to help with homework and tutoring. The program will allow us to offer parents a safe and secure environment for their children as well as an enriching and enjoyable experience for the students. This program will be available from 7:00 a.m. until the start of the school day and from the end of school until 5:30 p.m., Monday through Friday.
