International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme

Creativity, Activity, Service (CAS)

Learning to cook, choreographing a dance routine, and cleaning up a local park are all activities that can be completed through the CAS program.
"As an IB candidate, one of my favorite experiences has been my collaborative service project in which my fellow students and I put on a school-wide stargazing night."
CAS stands for Creativity, Activity, Service and is part of the core of the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme where students incorporate the IB program into their lives beyond the classroom. The goal of CAS is to deepen students’ understanding of themselves and others through a curious and open-minded approach to the world.
