Summary

Cascade K-8 Community School is a small public school in Shoreline, Washington, serving 197 students in kindergarten through eighth grade as part of the Shoreline School District. Its K–8 structure provides continuity beyond elementary school, although comparisons with nearby K–5 and K–6 schools are not always direct. The school district ranks 16th out of 238 Washington districts, placing it in the 93rd percentile statewide.

Academically, Cascade is one of the strongest schools in the local comparison. In 2025–2026, 78.52% of students were proficient in English language arts, 71.11% in math, and 79.49% in science—well above both district and state averages. Cascade had the highest reported math and science results among nearby Shoreline schools, while its ELA result was just below Home Education Exchange at 80%. It also outperformed Brookside Elementary, Lake Forest Park Elementary, Ridgecrest Elementary, and Echo Lake Elementary School in all or nearly all tested subjects. Particularly strong results included 88% proficiency in fifth-grade science, 84% in fifth-grade ELA, and 73.08% in sixth-grade math.

The school ranked 31st out of 1,138 Washington schools in 2025–2026, placing it in the 97th percentile, and has received five stars in every reported year since 2022–2023. Results have been consistently strong, though science declined from 84.78% to 79.49% in the latest year. Third-grade math, at 63.64%, and eighth-grade math, at 50%, were below district grade-level results and merit monitoring. Several grade-level ELA results were suppressed, meaning the figures are unavailable rather than low. Cascade’s 15.2-to-1 student-teacher ratio is typical among nearby Shoreline schools, while its per-student spending of $23,688 is relatively high. Its lower poverty rate than most comparison schools provides important context when interpreting raw test-score differences.

This school weaves fun and excitement into academics. Kids are given opportunities to learn things with hands-on experiences and field trips. The school values nature and provides outdoor education with twice-yearly camps for all students. There is a strong emphasis on community, and we have become known for our strength and our ability to band together to accomplish wonderful things. I wouldn't send my kids anywhere else. Close Quote
