Cascade Elementary School Students Excel in Mathematics
We have received our standardized test results from last year and are super excited about the high marks our students earned. We continue to be strong in science, but our greatest growth and strongest results are in mathematics. Since we have implemented our Eureka math program, our students have gone from scoring below state averages to scoring approximately 35% above the state average! This is a phenomenal turn around in just 2 ½ years. I am thankful for the collaborative efforts between parents and our talented and committed elementary teaching staff that has made this success a reality.
Math has become an essential tool for success in the evolving work environment and the goal of CPS to provide the mathematical knowledge, understanding, and skills our students need to be successful in whatever profession they want to pursue. Mathematics is clearly becoming a foundation for nearly all aspects of our economy ranging from finance, to computer technology, to engineering, to education, to small business ownership, to auto mechanics, and to agricultural work and management. It is exciting to know that Cascade Elementary School is doing a great job in preparing our students for the rigors of math in junior and senior high school, as well as college and professional careers.
