Cascade High School is hosting a blood drive with the Red Cross this Thursday, March 19th from 9am - 2 pm.
We are drastically short of our donor goal as of right now. Not only does your blood donation help the local and national need for blood, but it also helps fund a scholarship for Cascade High School seniors.
Here is the link that will take donors straight to the page to sign up for a time slot for our blood drive.

Kindergarten enrollment for the 26-27 school year opened Feb 1st in Cascade School District for students who will be 5 yrs old on or before Aug 31st. Complete your application on line from our website or pick up a paper registration packet. We are looking forward to the 2026-27 school year!!

Check out the Alpine Lakes collaborative collage mural created by our 3rd- and 5th-grade classes under the tutelage of Amber Zimmerman! The mural is inspired by Oregon artist Jennifer Lake Miller’s folk art painting of Leavenworth. The mural features schools, a ball field, a business district, wildlife, and neighborhoods. It is also interactive—one student added a “Find Waldo” element—and yes, Bigfoot makes an appearance as well. While the mural isn’t geographically accurate, it captures the heart of Leavenworth beautifully!
CSD just learned that the Chumstick has a 3+ mile closure starting this morning and lasting for at least the next 3 days. Routes 1,2,3 and 12 will likely be running 10-30 minutes late this morning.
Happy New Year 2026!
