Casey is a veteran educator with over three decades of experience, known for his interdisciplinary teaching, innovative curriculum design, and mentorship. With a deep foundation in both history and education, he brings a thoughtful, inquiry-driven approach to the classroom—and a passion for fostering critical thinking across subjects.
My teaching philosophy is steeped in constructivist theory and inquiry-based education; my planning process is informed by “Understanding By Design”. I use these practices because they place students in the forefront, often through student choice, creating an environment where students' suppositions are challenged through critical thinking. Most importantly, I believe all people want to be successful, and my attitudes toward learners follow that belief. A teacher's role is to build a pathway that mines a student’s natural curiosity and scaffolds the way to success.
I believe all students deserve environments that provide for dignified interactions that honor individuality.
