Casady school Reviews

Good school if you want the best education for your kid's

This school completely shaped who I am today and I will be forever grateful for everything it's given me.

Going to casady has been the most amazing experience. I can't believe how much I've grown, not only as a student but as a person

It is set on about 40acres a pond park, benches. A football field. Its beautiful.

Having had a number of family members attend Casady, I feel I cannot recommend it. They have, as is often mentioned, rested on their reputations of being a great school. Most unfortunately I have found this has led to complacency, and this school is now lagging behind others. The students are treated like money pinatas. They take hits to the quality of their education, and the quality of their educators, and money still falls out of them; this is much to the delight of the administration! Faculty and staff are also treated poorly, unless they are part of the right "political faction". They lose quality educators this way, and they are going to be losing a quality family before the next school term. Mine is not the first, nor is it the last, that will be leaving Casady. As its reputation of quality and integrity continues to degrade they shall see an exodus of families that care more about the education their children are receiving than the name on their diplomas. I bid Casady farewell in hopes that it turns itself around, for I cannot abide the lack of quality, nor the gargantuan lack of integrity the administration of this school exhibits and perpetuates.

If you're reading this, and you have a middle or high school child, then you're trying to make a decision about where your child will attend HS. A private school is expensive, and yes there are cheaper ones in OKC than Casady. But if it is within your means, and academics is more important to you and your child than sports, choose Casady. We have experience with both public and private schools in OKC, and this is by far the best fit we have found for our child. Prior to coming to Casady we had a preconceived notion that it was an "uppity" school. That has not been our experience at all. So far the teachers we've met are all well qualified and excited to be teaching, and the administrators are responsive, in control, and on the ball. The first thing our child said after her shadow day at Casady was "The teachers talk to the kids differently here." What she meant was, "more as adults, on a higher level." Expectations are high here and Casady is justifiably proud of itself. You owe it to yourself and your child to visit and check it out before you make a decision.
