7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school is amazing! The teachers are very kind, supportive, and attentive of their students. I was in Casey from Pre-K 4 to 5th grade. There is also a lot of family engagement like PTA. They also encourage the kids to read by giving them rewards. The students are amazing, the teachers and office workers are amazing, and the staff is amazing. 10/10 experience. 100% recommend this school!Other Review1y ago - Akins High School
