Join us in celebrating 34 outstanding students as Distinguished Graduates or Dennis Kampe Scholarship Recipients.
The Distinguished Graduate Award originated in 2015. It was developed to honor and recognize graduating seniors by acknowledging their dedication and hard work throughout the year.
The purpose of the Distinguished Graduate Award is to highlight the student in each program area that exemplifies the technical, academic, and professionalism skills at the highest level. The Distinguished Graduate Award recipients represent the most accomplished students from Cascadia Tech Academy. Students were either nominated by their instructor or by the program’s Advisory Committee.
The Dennis Kampe Scholarship started in 2000 as the General Advisory Committee Scholarship. It was renamed in 2024 in honor of Dennis Kampe’s 40 years of service to Cascadia Tech Academy and Cascadia Tech Academy Foundation.
This scholarship awards outstanding seniors in their program area and is intended for students who have post-secondary plans and exemplify the very best of their program.
Recipients are initially interviewed and selected by each program’s Advisory Committee. Scholarships can be used to purchase tools, pay for books or tuition in order to support students as they go to colleges, universities, technical schools, or enter an apprenticeship program
Thank you to our Corporate Sponsors and Cascadia Technical Academy Foundation! With their generous support, the recognition and the $37,000 in scholarships for our students are a possibility.
