Why Cassata?
- We provide a unique, flexible learning environment that gives students who would otherwise not be able to attend school another chance to pursue their education.
- Our open entry and exit policy, self-paced classes and flexible morning and afternoon schedules make it possible for students to begin course work based on their current level and work at a pace that is conducive for their success.
- Students receive personalized attention from caring teachers in small classes. Class sizes do not exceed 15 per teacher. Fundamental math and remedial reading classes are kept at 12 students per teacher. Beginning in Fall 2011 Cassata will also offer a remedial reading course taught by an ESL certified instructor.
- Our staff and teachers are dedicated and skillful, guiding and redirecting troubled youth down a better path. Cassata students are quickly transformed, recognizing that a quality education is the key toward a fulfilling future.
- Entrance testing allows Cassata to establish an individualized course of study that tailors academic instruction to fit students learning style and academic grade level.
- Students are encouraged to participate in extracurricular activities such as the oceanography team, student newspaper or yearbook and student council. Our small size allows many students who were on the fringe at their previous school to become involved in student activities and to fully engage.
- Students attend seminars and programs throughout the year that address a variety of topics, including study skills, interview techniques, career fairs and military recruitment seminars. These programs ensure students are exposed to a realm of post-graduation possibilities.
