History
In September 1947, Casady Hall opened its doors for the first time. Thirty-six students in three grades - seventh, eighth, and ninth - and four faculty members shared 38 acres (150,000 m2) which included a small lake, a house, and two barns. Tuition was $500 per year.
In 2007, Casady's enrollment grew to more than 875 students and 115 faculty members throughout the 29-building college campus-like atmosphere on 80 acres (320,000 m2) now in the heart of Oklahoma City.
