Cascade Elementary stands out academically within its district and nearby comparison group. In 2025–26, 60.19% of students were proficient in English language arts, 63.81% in math, and 63.16% in science—above both district and statewide rates in every subject. It led the other large Eastmont schools, including Lee Elementary, Grant Elementary School, and Kenroy Elementary. Its math performance was especially strong in grades 3–5, with proficiency above 70% in each grade. Compared with nearby Sunnyslope Elementary School, Cascade had similar ELA results, slightly higher math results, and somewhat lower science results, despite serving more students and reporting a higher student-teacher ratio.
The school’s results have improved over time, particularly in math and science, while ELA has remained consistently strong. Subgroup rankings were also high for students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, Hispanic and White students, English Language Learners, and both genders. Parents may want to ask specifically about sixth-grade math: proficiency fell to 45.65%, well below the roughly 70% results in grades 3–5, although it remained above district and state rates. Special education results are another area to investigate because the most recent available ranking, from 2023–24, was lower and more variable than the school’s other subgroup results. Overall, Cascade Elementary appears to be one of the strongest academic options among the nearby schools listed.
