Bold Belonging
At Cascadia, upper grade enrolling students aren't just accepted—they're embraced. Your child will be paired with a peer buddy on day one who'll show them the ropes. Parents consistently tell us their children feel 'at home' at Cascadia.
Seamless Transitions
Our upper grade teachers are experts at welcoming new students academically, socially, and emotionally. Through personalized attention, we ensure your child comfortably embraces Cascadia's inquiry-based approach.
Personal Attention
With our small class sizes, we notice everything. For upper grade enrolling students, our personalized approach is even more valuable—teachers provide targeted check-ins during the first few weeks to ensure academic and social integration.
“Coming to Cascadia from my previous school was a hard change. I had to move to a whole different house and neighborhood as well. The transition was nice because the teachers helped me with getting to know all the ways around. Now I love being a part of this community because everyone has a part to play here!”
