Diwali Celebrated Around The Lake

The Casady Community celebrated Diwali, the Hindu Festival of Lights, during a special Lower, Middle, and Upper Division assembly and a special presentation in Primary Division. 
Cyclones watched dancing by their fellow students, listened to music, and learned about this important festival that symbolizes the spiritual "victory of light over darkness, good over evil, and knowledge over ignorance". The date Diwali begins is based on the Hindu lunisolar calendar, and celebrations generally last five days.
 
One of the distinctive traits of Episcopal Schools is the rich variety of religious culture found in their students and families. Casady is an Episcopal Christian school that seeks to be welcoming to students and families of a variety of faith traditions, as well as families who have no religious practice. This is the inclusive nature of the Episcopal Church that also helps children learn to live in a diverse and multicultural world.
