Cascadia Tech Academy
November 25, 2024
From Our Director
As we approach Thanksgiving Break, I want to take a moment to be thankful for the privilege of leading Cascadia Technical Academy. As a student in the 1980s, I appreciate the incredible value of the training our dedicated instructors provide to our current students. Congratulations to our Construction program for selling their 47th student-built home. I encourage readers to check out our other student-operated businesses and see the amazing work our students are doing. More information is available below. Wishing everyone a joyous Thanksgiving!
We are doing great things!

Welcome New Staff
Deb Pratt-Israel, Fiscal Specialist
I have spent most of my life in the Vancouver area. I worked for the City of Vancouver for 24 years before coming to the Evergreen School District to be the Fiscal Specialist for CCTE. I've been married to my husband for 36 years, and we have 3 adorable dogs. I enjoy spending time with family and friends. I love learning new things and I am looking forward to supporting the staff and students here at Cascadia Tech.
What is the Process for Emergency School Closures?
Cascadia Technical Academy follows the Evergreen School District’s operating schedule. When Evergreen School District
is closed, Cascadia Tech Academy is also closed. When Evergreen School District has a 2-hour late start, then there are no session 1 classes at Cascadia Tech Academy, but session 2 is held at regular time.
If a student’s high school is closed because of inclement weather, the student WILL NOT be expected to attend Cascadia Tech Academy that day. If a student’s high school has a 2-hour late start, session 1 students are not expected to attend Cascadia Tech Academy, but session 2 students are expected to attend at regular time.
School closure or schedule change information will be given to the local TV and radio stations by 6 a.m. To get information on closure status, tune in to your local TV/Radio stations via internet/broadcast or check the Evergreen School District website at www.evergreenps.org.
