The Casablanca American School Parent Teacher Committee (PTC) welcomes new families and helps ensure their easy transition to the school community. The PTC is an all-volunteer, parent/teacher-run committee committed to enhancing, enriching, promoting and supporting the education of our children and fostering a sense of community within our school. The PTC facilitates communication between parents and the school's administration as well as coordinates the class Room Parent system, who act as liaisons among the parents, teachers, and PTC leadership. The PTC's fundraising efforts subsidize school events and activities at CAS aimed to directly benefit the students or entire community. We urge all families with children attending the Casablanca American School to join as PTC members each school year. Each membership helps augment our children's school experience and supports our educators in fulfilling their vision. Parent involvement is a fundamental part of what makes a school community rich and robust. Throughout the year, the PTC organizes many traditional American and Moroccan cultural celebrations such as the Annual Back to School Barbecue Party, Halloween Celebration, Spring Fair and end of year Music Fun Day.
