He received his Bachelor of Science Degree in Elementary Education and Early Childhood Education from California University of Pennsylvania and earned his Master of Arts degree in Teaching (Educational Technology) from Michigan State University.

Mr. Casciani advocates for the differentiation of the curriculum which will empower all students to be literate, critical thinkers...one size does not fit all. His principal remarks, "Mr. Casciani has provided far more than what is normally expected of a teacher with regard to school leadership. He developed several training modules based on our school's individual needs. He has excelled beyond expectation as our literacy facilitator, our curriculum implementation facilitator, and our continuous school improvement chair."
