Take a virtual tour today!Written Student Learning Plan (WSLP)
Your child won't spend 30 hours per week in a classroom at Cascade. Instead, their Written Student Learning Plan (WSLP) is split between on-site classes at Cascade and learning at home or in the community. You'll work with your student's counselor to develop a custom plan that is exactly what your child needs -- backed by certificated SPS teachers, district funding, IEP services, and a flexible, inclusive culture. This makes Cascade uniquely accessible to many students who haven't been served well by regular schools.
Cascade classes meet one to three times per week for an hour or ninety minutes. The maximum class size is 16 kids and there is usually more than one adult per classroom. Students build their own schedules and take one to five classes per semester. Because the WSLP includes both the learning that takes place at Cascade and the home portion of your student's learning plan, taking even one class at Cascade can be considered full time, meaning that your student is eligible for all the support Cascade has to offer.
Cascade's Mission
At Cascade Parent Partnership Program, staff and families collaborate to create individualized plans that support the unique needs and interests of our diverse learners. Students learn in our classrooms, at home, and wherever their curiosity takes them. At Cascade, we celebrate individuality, embrace community, and have fun as we learn about ourselves and the world around us.
