Cascadia Tech New April 2025
Full Newsletter Link
From Our Director
This time of year, we have many of our classrooms empty due to our students out on internships learning important trade, business, and industry skills. We have several great highlights of student-led activities in partnership with local businesses, and national qualifiers for SkillsUSA, DECA, HOSA, and FBLA. Order your copy of the first Cascadia Tech memory book. Also, our Summer School registration opens tomorrow at 8 AM. Classes fill fast.
We are doing great things!

2025 List of Summer School Courses
Spanish: Escuela de Verano
Russian: Летняя школа
Purpose of Cascadia Tech’s Summer Programs:
Short-term specialized training programs designed for students who have not had the opportunity to attend Cascadia Tech because of scheduling conflicts.
Introductory training for students entering Cascadia Tech programs in the fall as well as introductions to CTE for future students to explore different career options.
Additional training and reinforcement for students presently enrolled in Cascadia programs.
The skills you learn at Cascadia Tech can pay off in a better job later or help you discover an area in which you excel.
High School Credit: Students can earn 0.5 high school CTE or elective credit for successful completion of a summer school class. Some classes can receive academic credit, noted in course descriptions. Good attendance is very important; therefore, you may want to plan your vacations accordingly. Missing more than 3 days will result in no credit.
Who is Eligible? The Cascadia Technical Academy summer school program is available to students who have completed the 8th, 9th, 10th, or 11th grade in the previous year. All students (including home and private school) must be current residents within the following school districts: Battle Ground, Camas, ESD 112, Evergreen, Hockinson, La Center, Ridgefield, Vancouver, Washougal, or Woodland.
