About Our 2024-2025 Teacher of the Year...

Congratulations to Mrs. Karina Casas, Canterbury's 2024-2025 Teacher of the Year!
 
Mrs. Karina Casas, daughter to San Juanita and Fernando, has been teaching for 19 years. She and her husband have a beautiful daughter.  Katya definitely keeps them busy with her volleyball and middle school adventures.  
During her middle school years, Mrs. Casas’s family decided to move to the U.S.  Not knowing the English language and cultural norms challenged her to adapt and find ways to ensure her advancement and improvement in all aspects of life.  This sense of urgency, determination, and just pure desire to do well and learn is something she hopes to instill in her students.  She takes pride in the fact that she is a lifelong learner, always looking to enhance, improve, and build upon her skill sets.
Through the years, she has served in countless committees, held numerous leadership positions, and received recognitions she holds dear to her heart.  She achieved her goal of graduating with a Master’s degree in Educational Leadership.  Always wanting to help her campus in any way possible, Mrs. Casas hopes her work ethic and commitment to her students, colleagues, and school community make a positive, lasting impact.
