Alger B. Wilkins High School – Creativity, Activity, Service (Cas)

Apr 2026 · 2nd Semester

Creativity, Activity, Service (CAS) are at the heart of the DP. With its holistic approach, CAS is designed to strengthen and extend students’ personal and interpersonal. CAS is organized around the three strands of creativity, activity, and service. A CAS experience is a specifi c event in which the student engages with one or more of the three CAS strands. It can be a single event or an extended series of events. A CAS project is a collaborative series of sequential CAS experiences lasting at least one month. A student’s CAS program typically combines planned/unplanned singular and ongoing experiences. All are valuable and may lead to personal development. However, a meaningful CAS program must be more than just a series of unplanned/singular experiences. Students must be involved in at least one CAS project during the program. This component is a requirement for all IB Diploma students.
