As a former student, I have to say that the science department could use work. Whoever designed the biology and physics classes seems stubbornly insistent on teaching philosophy and writing than actual science. Science test scores and 4-year university attendance reflect alarming trends. It annoys me to see them call it the 'School of Pride' when many students are indifferent to these problems. The future of Washington's economy lies on high technology, and Cascade needs to work harder at creating a good, challenging experience for everyone who wants one.
I love it at Cascade it is wonderful.Our principle is new but shee will catch on to the Cascade way. There are excellent teachers and the students here are wonderful. There are really no cliques it is just a big circle of love. The colleges look at our school alot for sports and many other things.
As a parent and former Cascade student, I have to agree with the January 4 post. Everett has been a blue-collar town where kids left highschool and went to work where there parents did at Boeing or Weyerhauser. Not anymore, but I think that mentality has been slow to change. The 21st century workforce needs college educations to compete with the world market. When I went to Cascade only the 'really smart' kids were earmarked as college bound. Now, they tell the kids up front what their grades need to look like to get into college, not just what they need to graduate by the skin of their teeth!
It seems that alot of students go to trade schools after graduating. Cascade does not seem to have a above average percentage of students goung off to a 4 year college. The teachers are fine. The athletics very good. The population of students seems to be too high. Other than that, it's a fine school.
