Dear Amazing Casimir Community and Families,
Welcome to another exciting and wonderful school year at Casimir Middle School!
As I reflect on the year already underway, I am deeply inspired by the incredible students we serve, the immensely talented teachers and staff who guide them, and the unwavering support of our families, parents, and PTSA. Together, you create the heartbeat of our school, and I am filled with gratitude for each of you.
Every day, our students impress me with their curiosity, creativity, and commitment to learning. Whether they are mastering a new math concept, bringing music to life through practice and performance, diving into a thought-provoking novel, exploring the achievements of historical figures, or giving their all on the athletic field, their energy and enthusiasm shine. Their determination, kindness, and bright spirits make Casimir a truly special place. It is an honor to support their growth and learning alongside such a strong and caring community.
Looking ahead, I see a year filled with promise and opportunity. I know our students will continue to soar, striving toward excellence and inspiring us with their resilience and passion for discovery. They are the future leaders of our world, and their journeys will undoubtedly be filled with great success!
I also want to thank you for your continued partnership. Casimir is more than just a school; it is a vibrant community where students thrive because of the collaboration between families, staff, and supporters. It is no surprise that the Daily Breeze Beach Report recognized Casimir as the Best School in the South Bay. This recognition is a reflection of the collective dedication and love that our community pours into making Casimir the very best it can be.
Please know that my door is always open. I welcome your questions, thoughts, and ideas, and I look forward to working together to ensure another year of growth, joy, and achievement for our students.
Thank you for being such an essential part of the Casimir family. Together, we will make this year extraordinary.
With gratitude and pride
James Ashikawa
Proud Principal
