We recently had the privilege of recognizing Mr. Nino Casio as an Outstanding Educator!

​

Mr. Casio's Principal had this to say about him:

In the classroom, Mr. Casio’s patience and personal connections with the students allow him to meet their needs academically and socially. He devotes an incredible amount of time and invests great care into his preparation and delivery of dynamic, engaging, tech-savvy lessons. He ensures that his is a classroom in which students are accepted and challenged. He is highly reflective of his teaching and continually searches for new ways to enhance his craft and grow professionally.

​

In addition to this, Mr. Casio is also our Student Council sponsor this year. Student Council and he have been busy all year working on creative and meaningful experiences for our staff and students. Everything from guest speakers, skits, and dances during Dr. Seuss Week to honoring his colleagues with an Oscars Ceremony for Teacher Appreciation Week. As an example of his creative and generous spirit, Academy awards with personal greetings from the students were presented to Joe Carlson's teachers honoring their collective contributions to our school—a truly touching and amazing way to have the students build up and celebrate their teachers.

​

Mr. Casio is well respected by parents, students, and colleagues. He balances high expectations for student performance while ensuring that his classroom is a safe and enjoyable learning environment.
