General Information HISTORY AND LOCATION Cascade Christian Academy provides quality Christian education and scholastic opportunities from preschool through senior high school. Founded in 1905, the academy has maintained a high degree of excellence in its scholastic pursuits as is evidenced by the success of its alumni. Because of its emphasis on continuing higher education, Cascade Christian Academy stresses a college preparatory program. The enthusiastic support of the church and community has blessed CCA with growth over the years. First known as the Wenatchee Seventh-day Adventist School and formerly held in the brick building that now serves as a Community Service Center, the school became Wenatchee Adventist Junior Academy and grew with the construction of the current elementary classroom wing and gymnasium in the 1960s. With the addition of the eleventh and twelfth grades in the fall of 1988 and the construction of the high school building, WAJA became Cascade Christian Academy , a state-approved K-12 school, accredited by the Northwest Association of Schools & Colleges and the SDA Board of Regents. The growth of the early childhood education program led in 1992 to construction of the Cascade Christian Childcare center which offers preschool and a thriving full-time daycare program and also houses CCA’s kindergarten classes. The summer of 1996 brought further campus improvements. The Wenatchee Seventh-day Adventist Church ’s “Multi-Plan” project combined remodeling of the church building with expanded and improved cafeteria, library, storage, and office space for the academy.
Cascade Christian Academy is governed by a Board of Directors whose members are appointed by the constituent Seventh-day Adventist churches in the area, which give financial support to the school. Board meetings are generally held on the 2 nd Monday of the month in the CCA Library at 6:30 p.m. Parents and constituent church members may attend board meetings with permission from the Board chairperson.
