Keep St. Casimir School Open
Why should St. Casimir School remain open? Because it is a model Title I Catholic school located
in the inner city of Yonkers with an environment so unique that other schools
should strive to emulate it.
Strengths of the school:
* Diverse student body
* Equality to which every student is treated
* Caring, dedicated teachers and staff
The school has over 40 nationalities represented. The diversity reflects all racial, social and economic groups. Why does St. Casimir School have such a diverse population? Because everyone is accepted and treated equally, without prejudice.Racism and prejudice do not attend this school. Tolerance does and it has a perfect attendance record. If this school is closed, it is a step backwards in the civil rights movement.
Many of the students live in the low-income underserved neighborhood where the school is located. Many are first generation Americans, all wanting a better life for their children.
We need you to stand-up for the children of St. Casimir! Let St. Casimir School remain open to continue its 100 year tradition of providing a quality education to children in Pre-Kindergarten 3 to grade 8.
