JJ // COMMANDOS CENTER & ASPIRING CHEMIST
Cascia Hall minimesters inspire students like JJ to experiment with new ideas and to become outstanding in whatever fields they desire.
MINIMESTER: WHAT DO YOU WANT TO BE WHEN YOU GROW UP?
Who knows the answer to that at this age, right? The world is at your fingertips and now is the perfect time to explore it!
Cascia Hall’s minimester boasts unique experiences every January, for the entire month, for you to experience your future.
MINIMESTER OVERVIEW
Juniors and seniors find out what it is like to actually work in their future lives! Sounds crazy, doesn’t it? You start by deciding what you might want to do when you grow up: maybe it’s being a doctor, a game software engineer, a security analyst, an FBI agent, but who knows, the list is endless. Next is the fun part; you get to live that life for the ENTIRE month of January.
Freshman and sophomore years are all about the Minimester Catalog. The catalog is complete with over 50 subjects you always wanted to learn about but never had the opportunity to, such as History vs. Hollywood or the JFK Conspiracy Theories!
Minimester isn’t just for Upper School students who have completed academic requirements early; ALL Cascia Hall Upper School students get the added value of life training through minimester. It is a graduation requirement; a grade is earned and a life is changed.
These are just a few of the 50+ elective options!
The focus of our campus ministry is to help us live out our core values of truth (veritas), unity (unitas), and love (caritas) by helping others, especially those who are in need. Throughout the school year, the Cascia community comes together to support specific causes and organizations.

Welcome to Cascia from Cascia Link Crew . All incoming freshmen will be assigned to a Link Crew group! Each Link Crew group is led by two upperclassmen that are responsible for welcoming your student to our school community. Link Crew leaders will organize events throughout the school year to make sure they are connected with their classmates and answer any questions. Link Crew leaders will be your student's contact for all things related to Cascia Hall.
