About
Who We Are.
At Cascades Academy we believe that learning how to learn is just as important as learning the answers. We are seeking to develop a lifelong love of learning in our students.
Academics
Where Information Meets Inspiration.
With 18 students per class on average, classes are large enough to encourage an energetic exchange of ideas, yet small enough to allow for individual attention.
Community
Where Every Child is Known and Valued.
In a world where it takes a village to raise a good human, we are your village. We are a supportive network of inspired students, talented teachers, and involved families.
Experiential Learning
Where Learning Comes to Life.
Research shows that this kind of active, experiential learning supports creativity, problem solving and a deeper understanding that endures beyond test day.
Arts & Tech
Preparing Students for the Demands of 21st Century.
The nexus of creativity and critical thinking is at the forefront of demands from the 21st century graduate and they are at the core of our dynamic educational program.
Athletics
Not Your Typical PE Program.
Whether rock climbing or hitting the slopes at Mt. Bachelor, Cascades Academy students are active and outdoors as much as possible.
- Ski & Snowboard Program

Extended Day Program

Our Extended Day Program currently offers Morning and After School Care for Pre-K through 5th grade students who are learning in-person, on campus. We also offer after school classes, currently offered only online. Check here to explore our current class offerings.

After School Care

After School Care is available for students learning at school, in person, every weekday from 2:30 - 5:00pm. Students will start with a snack packed from home, followed by time to play outside or inside, including games, STEM activities and art projects.

Pricing

Each day of care is $10 and families can purchase a punch card of 20 days of care for $200 that can be used throughout the 2020-2021 school year. This punch card supports our need to manage a controlled cohort throughout the year. Once the punch card is used, a family can purchase another punch card. We ask families to communicate the dates they intend their children to be at after care by contacting us at extendedday@cascadesacademy.org.
