Casorso Elementary is dedicated to assisting your kids in their academic endeavors. Casorso is committed to ensuring that your child's intellectual requirements are fulfilled while also meeting their sociocultural, psychological, physical, and cognitive demands. Casorso Elementary takes pleasure in providing a loving, secure, and respected learning environment for our kids. They aim to make sure that every kid feels included and valued.

They have committed as a staff to three key principles for the 2021-2022 school year: Connection, Kindness, and Growth. These three fundamental ideals will guide all instructional strategies and objectives. The team will get together to discuss how to better integrate these three ideals into academic tasks.

Working and Learning in a Dual-track School

For everyone, improving skills in a dual-track school is a great chance. Seeing six-year-olds have whole dialogues in their new language is speechless. Instructors and learners at Casorso Elementary find delight in their multilingual talents and exhibit enthusiasm in the French language and culture. However, they sometimes unconsciously stay together in the classroom with only their kids instead of mixing with the many characters who make up the Casorso family.

The concept of Family Groups was born out of a desire to promote new interactions between parents and children of various ages. Each family group gets together once a month for some entertainment! They interact through playing games, singing songs, being goofy, making crafts, and getting to know one another better. Everyone develops better in a setting where they are trusted, protected, and respected, and what better way to inculcate these principles than via relationships? The connections created throughout the school as a result of Family Groups have been incredible!
