Cascade Middle School

The quality of everything at this school is very poor. The administration cares not about families and will lie to protect themselves. There is a new building, but that means little when the people who are supposed to be educating the children act like they wish they would be anywhere else. There is a substantial amount of bullying, theft, and violence. All of which nothing is done about. Avoid this school at all costs.

This school goes above and beyond for the kids, changes are happening all the time, and growing pains are always rough. Throughout covid my Kindergartener got to go to class part time, which was great as she learns better that way. They have a newly formed PTO that is putting events on for the community, teachers go out of there way to help children, my daughter has extra needs for learning and she continuously gets attention from specialists to help her, and its helping. All schooling needs us parents to be apart of it, and there is no lack of that, tons of parent involvement, teacher parent interaction.

We are so happy with Fircrest. The staff is friendly, engaged, and they know every kid's name! Our experience with teachers has been very positive. With learning and behavior concerns for our son, the teachers have worked with us to positively reinforce better academic and social outcomes. We love that the school is diverse and offers accommodations for multiple languages, including a focus on sign language! Also, the school's theme of "Let Kindness Ripple" is something we carry into our interactions with family and community members.

The have the best after school clubs as chess, lego, horticultural, musical.

Between the low testing scores on average for all students at this school, the amount of bullying, Never having homework, bad leadership in the administration and taking away good rules and adding ones that are more complicated and make parents/students lives harder this school had went from one of the better schools In this area of Vancouver to a school o wouldn't recommend to anyone. As someone who was a student in the past and now has my own children going here it is astonishing to see how terrible this school is now.

I loved this school, I don’t remember much of the education, but the staff were so lovely. They cared so much for the students, the school videos are so adorable and I love how they kept doing that over the years. I keep going back to see my class in the Happy video a few years ago. So so adorable. Any child would be happy to be there.
