Student portfolios are used at Cascade Middle School to celebrate student achievement throughout the year. Portfolios allow students to keep a permanent record of their work and demonstrate mastery of learning goals. Students take ownership of their learning by setting goals, evaluating their own progress, and reflecting on what they have learned. In contrast to traditional grading, portfolios emphasize student self-assessment and show documentation that learning standards have been met.
