Summary

Cascade Elementary is a K–6 school in Marysville, Washington, serving 382 students in the Marysville School District near other neighborhood schools such as Pinewood Elementary and Kellogg Marsh Elementary School. For 2025–26, Cascade ranked 618th out of 1,138 Washington elementary schools, placing it in the 46th percentile, with a SchoolDigger rating of two stars. Its student-teacher ratio was 16.6, and 64.4% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–25.

Academically, Cascade performed above the district average in all three reported subjects: 42.48% of students met standards in English language arts, 36.28% in math, and 42.62% in science. Those results remain below Washington averages, but the school’s math and science advantages over the district were especially notable. Cascade was generally one of the stronger nearby traditional elementary schools. Grove Elementary led the local comparison, outperforming Cascade in all three subjects, while Cascade exceeded Pinewood Elementary and was ahead of several other nearby schools. Its overall standing also improved substantially from the 20th percentile in 2022–23.

Fourth grade is Cascade’s clearest academic strength: proficiency reached 52.11% in ELA and 50.70% in math, slightly above state averages in both subjects. Sixth grade is the main concern, with results of 25.58% in ELA and 18.60% in math, well below district and state levels. Subgroup effectiveness was strongest for English Language Learners, at the 71st percentile statewide, and Hispanic students, at the 75th percentile; these figures measure effectiveness compared with similar populations statewide, not the share meeting standards. Overall, Cascade appears to be a mid-performing, improving school with solid district-relative results, but it would benefit from more consistent year-to-year performance and focused support for sixth-grade students.
