For how little funding Cascade gets, its doing really well. The teachers are amazing and most of them genuinely care for students beyond just school. However, Cascade does not have much discipline given out by the administrative level hence why many students continue to be disinterested in learning and thereby decreasing the overall performance of Cascade. This decline causes the school to gain very little funding almost every year and cut many of its crucial academic programs instead of expanding and adding more. Overall, the teachers try very hard to make students feel welcome and to teach students. However, the Everett Public Schools district and Cascade Administrative Team continuously makes poor decisions causing us to become a school that doesn't have a lot to offer compared to other schools in the area. Furthermore, administrators are not very strict on rules and regulations making students feel free to discriminate and even ensue violence against others. This is what lead me to not recommend Cascade as a school to attend if you are given the choice. Again, the teachers are amazing, its just the administrators and district employees that have screwed us over.

This school sucks so incredibly bad. I told the councilor I was having serious mental issues and he barely talked to me and the made me write it out on a paper for my parents to see. Thanks gateway.

I don't think the mental and emotional well being of students is a priority at SFE. Group punishment is often used during recess. Lunch time isn't enough for kids to sit and finish their meal. The district and school administration pushed against parent requests and OSPI recommendations to extend lunch.
