Cascade Ridge has one of the best special education programs in the district. Not only are its teachers and assistants highly qualified, they are kind and caring individuals who seek out the best of each student and strive to help each student achieve their greatest potential.
I was a former student that went to Cascade Ridge Elementary and overall, i thought the school was...ok. The school was very strick and had alot of dumb/stupid rules (ex: you were not allowed to touch the snow). And my 5th grade teacher tought very fast, though that problem is very minor. There is alot of great teachers & memories that was left when my years were done there and I hope the rest of the schools years are at its best!
This school has a strong curriculum, high test scores, great programs and extra-curriculars to offer. It has excellent teachers in general, but the 5th grade team is a bit weak compared to the rest of the school. Another weak point is boys writing. Huge parental involvement. Extremely successful PTSA. Beautiful location with most kids walking to school. Truly a 'neighborhood' school. There is a new, highly competent principal. 100% membership in the PTSA. This school is very, very safe. Overall, the school has been a joy to have my children attend.
My daughter attended this school in 4th and 5th grade. The campus is beautiful, but the school was overcrowded. A lot of parent involvement. Here is the downside. If you don't look like you walked out of Vogue Magazine, you are invisible to the other parents. Some of the teachers are good, some I could do without. The principal was great. Our neighborhood has been rezoned so my younger children will attend a different school. You don't have to look like Malibu Barbie to be accepted by the other parents at Endeavor.
Beautiful school, academically rigorous, great teachers (mostly), involved parents, many programs- leadership is the weak link here. New principal will hopefully take more interest in students and parents.
