Summary
Cascade View Elementary is a smaller K–6 school in Snohomish, Washington, serving 412 students in a generally strong-performing area. It is part of the Snohomish School District, which ranks in the 83rd percentile statewide. However, Cascade View ranks 600th out of 1,138 Washington elementary schools, placing it in the 47th percentile with a two-star rating. Its recent ranking has declined from the 59th percentile in 2023–24, suggesting that the school has lost momentum compared with many nearby schools.
The clearest academic concern is mathematics. In 2025–26, 37.44% of students were proficient in math, compared with 52.80% districtwide and 43.11% statewide. Fourth- and fifth-grade math were especially weak, at 34.69% and 32.00%. English Language Arts proficiency was 49.51%, while science was a relative strength at 52.94%, slightly above the state rate. Results are uneven by grade: grades 3 and 4 show notable ELA weaknesses, while sixth-grade ELA reached 58.93%, above both district and state rates. Compared with nearby schools, Cascade View trails Seattle Hill Elementary, Dutch Hill Elementary, Riverview Elementary, and Machias Elementary in overall ranking, but it performs better than nearby Central Emerson Elementary in ELA and science.
For parents, the school’s favorable staffing measures are worth noting: its student-teacher ratio of 14.5 is the lowest among the listed nearby schools, and its per-student spending is higher than most local comparisons. Those resources have not yet translated into achievement closer to the district average, making math intervention, early-grade literacy support, and consistent instruction important areas to investigate. The school is not uniformly weak—upper-grade ELA and science offer encouraging signs—but its recent declines across all tested subjects and its below-peer performance indicate that families should ask about plans to improve fourth- and fifth-grade math, support different student groups, and sustain academic progress.
