We do not attend service here, but all 3 of my kids have been or are going through CASA. I love the teachers and all they have done for my children.
UPDATE: 7 years later and all my daughters are straight A students at OMMS and MLES. Youngest has played basketball 2 years now at Upward Sports held at AMC.
