I moved to Cascade High School as a freshman, and it has been an outstanding experience. The teacher's are friendly, the classes are challenging, and the small town atmosphere gives the school a family feel. I highly recommend attending Cascade High.

The teachers truly care about want the best for the students. They will go out of their way to help with any problems related to school or not. Students also make new kids including those from trade school feel welcomed and at home.

My experience at Cascade High school has been absolutely wonderful. I transferred schools during my sophomore year and have felt at home ever since. The student body is so kind and welcoming.
