Cascade School District

Congratulations to all Cascade High School students enrolled in Eastern Washington University’s College in the High School program! 🎉

Students who have taken an EWU College in the High School course already have an application started and ready to submit to EWU. Even better, EWU has waived the application fee for all College in the High School students at Cascade High School.

Today, EWU representatives ran an application workshop and accepted 10 Cascade High School students on the spot during class. Congratulations to these students on this exciting achievement and the bright futures ahead! 🦅✨

October is Principal Appreciation Month, a nationwide celebration recognizing school principals' leadership, dedication, and impact. Thank you to our amazing principals Mrs. Ross, Mr. Muscutt, Mrs. Gilreath, Mrs. Bibby, and Mr. Gasbar! We appreciate you!

The Alpine Lakes library has a new book titled The Great Leavenworth Christmas Storm by local author Denise Cherryholmes! She was kind enough to sign it for students too.

Congratulations to the Motivated Mountain Lions from September! These students were recognized for their skills with Relationship: valuing connection with others, caring for each other, and allowing themselves to be known. Great job, Mountain Lions!

During Tuesday and Thursday Flex periods, Publications students photographed 23 clubs and classes for the 2026–2027 school year, with enrollment ranging from just one member - Equestrian - to more than 60 - Interact. Drama Club, advised by Mr. Allen, brought some lighthearted fun to the sessions with their “crazy” photo. This year also welcomes a new addition to the club roster: Archery Club! Advised by Mr. Rowland, the club’s mission is “To provide outdoor recreation for all students new and experienced in archery.” Whether you’re part of a small group or a club packed with Kodiaks, there’s a place for you to get involved.

Photo of the Week: Sally Fortney and Wren Knight get a little extra hydration from soccer coach Travis Blue during Soak a Senior on September 24. More than 55 students, staff, parents, and community supporters took part in what has quickly become an annual CHS tradition during Flex. The event was a wild success, raising more than $1,600 for the senior class in just 30 minutes. Safe to say, nobody left dry—and the Class of 2027 made a pretty big splash. "What made such a big difference was how in sync our ASB team is," said Senior Class President Ada Missal. "Our organization was all on the same page." Photo credit: Noah Jerome (9)

Let's go, Mountain Lions!

Let's go, Kodiaks!
