Casablanca American School (CAS) is a non-profit, co-educational day school in Casablanca, Morocco, set on a 10-acre campus in the residential Californie district. It was founded in 1973 by the Goodyear Corporation together with the U.S. Consulate General, and has occupied its purpose-built campus since 1989. Today it teaches around 670 students aged 3 to 18, from Nursery to Grade 12, drawn from more than 30 nationalities, with a mostly U.S. and internationally recruited faculty. The programme is a university-preparatory American curriculum (aligned with AERO standards in the Lower School) that leads, in Grades 11 and 12, to the International Baccalaureate Diploma. CAS was authorised as an IB World School in 1986 and is recognised as the first school in North Africa to run the full IB Diploma; it is currently a candidate school for the IB Primary Years Programme from Nursery to Grade 6. Every student graduates with a high school diploma, and French and Arabic are compulsory from Grade 2, so graduates leave with bilingual diplomas. The school is accredited by NEASC, is a U.S. State Department assisted school and belongs to NESA and ECIS. Its early years use The Creative Curriculum, and CAS is one of only three schools outside the United States named a Creative Curriculum Ambassador School. Families will also find learning support, English language development, counselling, a cafeteria and a busy arts and athletics programme competing as the Cobras.

I mean, I know school is boring. But I like this school, but all I hate about it is COVID-19. I do school here in CAS, I'm in 3B right now. We have Ms. Phillips, Ms. Nienhuis, Ms. Griffith, Ms. Hanson. I just like this school, I rate it five outta five.
