Cyber Academy of South Carolina (CASC), an online public school,
will celebrate the Class of 2019 during an in-person commencement
ceremony on Saturday, June 8th. The ceremony will take place at the
Koger Center for the Arts in Columbia.
Many assume that attending an online public school like CASC
means that students miss out on “real” high school experiences, but
this in-person graduation proves quite the opposite.
This year, CASC will graduate more than 165 students. This
year’s valedictorian and salutatorian are students Claire
Tsakanikas and Lauren Ahl.
Kevin P. Chavous, President of Academics, Policy and Schools at
K12, Inc., will address the graduates and their assembled guests
during the ceremony.
“CASC’s Class of 2019 has shown resolve and determination in
pursuing their education, which will serve them well in college and
beyond,” said Chavous. “Like most kids, they have struggled, and
they have succeeded, but it is these life lessons that will set
them up for success as they begin the next chapter of their
lives.”
Collectively, the Class of 2019 reports it has been offered more
than $750,000 in scholarships and have been accepted to trade
schools, colleges and universities across the country including:
the University of South Carolina, Clemson University and the
Clemson University Calhoun Honors Program, the Savannah College of
Art and Design, Northern Arizona University, Greenville Technical
College, Augusta University, and Trident Technical College.
“The personalized education we provide at CASC gives our
students the tools they need to succeed,” said CASC’s Head of
School David Crook. “Our seniors are uniquely prepared for any
post-graduation endeavor they decide to pursue.”
Students enroll in CASC for a number of reasons—some are looking
to escape bullying, some may have fallen academically off track,
and others are looking for an alternative to the traditional
brick-and-mortar classroom setting. CASC students access a robust
online curriculum in the core subjects of math, science, English
language arts, history, art and music and a host of electives, and
attend live virtual classes taught by state-licensed teachers.
Details of the graduation ceremony are as follows:
