Dear Parents, Staff, and Friends of CAS: 

What a fantastic evening last Saturday!!! The event was grandiose and fireworks provided by Mr. and Mrs. Youssefi, lit up the Californie Sky that night marking decades of our institution's Search for Excellence, Knowledge and Understanding.  Our school celebrated its long-term friendships and gathered those from near and far to celebrate our 50th Anniversary. Those in attendance can certainly attest that last Saturday, May 27th will forever be etched in our memories. Thank you once again to Fatiha Sajid, the master mind of the event who pushed it beyond all limits. Thank you to all of the event committee members along with others including the PTC who helped make this possible. We extend our sincere appreciation to our wonderful families, dignitaries and the United States Consul General Lawrence Randolph for honoring us with their presence.  Pictures in our gallery speak volumes for themselves. We cannot thank enough our sponsors, who helped make it exciting.  We are fortunate to have the generosity of many partners and parents including those who would like to remain anonymous.  We acknowledge the following CAS parents who sponsored the Gala: Mr. and Mrs. Hilali and Mr. and Mrs. Fadile. 

Our gratitude goes equally to  Mr. and Mrs. Tazi (Nascer and Lina) for their generous donation towards the CAS Scholarship Fund and to Mr. and Mrs. Youssefi (Jawad and Ghizlane) for the amazing fireworks!

This Saturday we also celebrate the thirty-eight (38) Seniors who will be graduating. They have achieved admission offers to some of the finest colleges and Universities in the US, Canada and Europe. 

Our wonderful PTC Members are soon to be taking leave after spoiling us with a wonderful year full of events from the Parents Welcome Breakfast last Fall to the Grade 6 Graduation to be held on June 10th.  

PTC Members: 

Ms. Sara Jamaleddine

Ms. Asmaa Chaoui- Belkady

Ms. Kaoutar Alami-Mejjati 

Ms. Safinaze Chraibi

Much appreciation  to Ms. Loubna  Rhannage  and Ms. Kaoutar Ziali, who along with other members have been working behind the scenes.

We will be holding the elections of a new PTC on Tuesday, June 13th.  If you are interested to serve as an officer, please send an email to Halima Sarhane at hsarhane@cas.ac.ma

Officers will consist of: President, Vice President, 2 Co-Treasurers, a Secretary, Storage Manager, and a Faculty Member Representative. Once the Officers are elected, they will decide among themselves the role that each will play in the PTC. The transition with the current PTC will take place right after the elections.  

Again, thank you valuable members of the PTC and we are looking forward to welcoming the new members on board.

Finally, congratulations to our dear colleague, Ms. Ami Wright, our Pre-First Teacher, for the birth of her son, Amir. Both mother and child are enjoying each other's company with Papa Omar. 

Sincerely, 

John J. Randolph

4A students are raising money to donate to Lalla Hasna Orphanage. We have created a book of Choose Love themed short stories to sell.

Please see the attached flyer.

The Guinness World Record was awarded to First Plastics Morocco, a company owned by Nabil Safieddine, father of Neil (10th grade) and Yann (9th grade).

The title is Strongest CPVC water supply pipes in the world.

The tests were conducted by the Guinness accredited stakeholders around the world and it took 2 years to do so.

Needless to say that this great achievement will have its positive impact on the Moroccan industries in different fields as it will inspire them to strive for excellence, one of CAS mottos.

Congratulations to Nabil and Hafça Safieddine, their 2 children and to the wonderful First Plastics Team, as it is all about TEAMWORK.

The formal, hosted by Casablanca American School, is an event where students had the opportunity to dress up according to the theme of masquerade, take pictures in a Photo Booth, have fun in karaoke, and eat from all the food options at hand. Through this project, we aimed to raise funds for IDMAJ for it to be able to continue and foster global education, and human empathy through national and international education for the students in need in Morocco. This would give students the opportunity to have access to a better education.

Dear CAS Community,

I cannot believe that the end of the year is coming up. This year has gone by so quickly. It was a real pleasure for me to return to this beautiful community of ours and to be able to celebrate 50 years of excellence with you! Admissions will be closed for testing from June 12th until August 7th. However, you can still submit your inquiries and applications online all throughout the summer. We wish you all a wonderful vacation and look forward to seeing you all on August 23rd!

Sincerely,

Zaineb Sajid
