Our unique approach to education
We create a space where every child’s curiosity and potential are nurtured, helping them grow into global citizens who approach the world with openness and wonder.
Holistic Approach
We believe education is a lifelong journey fueled by curiosity and engagement. Our role is to inspire young learners to ask meaningful questions, explore answers with confidence, and keep discovering with persistence and joy.
Celebrating each child
We celebrate that all children are unique and bring their own creativity to the classroom. By keeping our class sizes small, we allow for individualized engagement. Students learn to embrace their differences and trust their personal voice.
Rooted in our history
We have been a strong presence in the Eastside independent school community since 1977. With a rich foundation in Montessori philosophy, our unique curriculum intertwines independence and discovery with structure and accountability.
Committed to the whole student
Elementary school lays the foundation for future success, and our commitment to a broad liberal arts education helps students grow into curious, engaged thinkers across multiple disciplines, with learning that sprial upwards.
Our alumni families
“Cascadia has successfully built and fostered a very supportive and transformative environment for the budding kids. The innovative approach of the Cascadia teachers to nurture well-roundedness in students has been awe-inspiring. Their infectious enthusiasm, energy, and ability to inspire the students in pushing the boundaries have made the world of difference for my daughter.”
“Cascadia is a school that inspires excellence and creativity in kids. After sending both of our kids to Cascadia, we cannot even compare it to any other private school in the area. Cascadia gives our kids the high quality education they deserve and work hard for. The teachers are incredible and introduce the kids into fun activities and hands-on learning. Cascadia simply does it all. ”
“Every single year, the kind, dedicated teachers gave our kids strong work habits, excellent academics, fun and creative inquiry-based projects, and memorable outside-the-classroom field trips to build teamwork and self-awareness. The work they do in shaping kids into well-rounded little people is remarkable; the learning skills they impart really go beyond the classroom. This school is a true gem and an oasis for a happy childhood.”
