History

Cascade was founded in 1984 [4] and enrolled students between the ages of 13 and 18 years, with a capacity for 120 students in Its final years. [1]

The school used Synanon's attack therapy session known at Synanon as the game. [5]

Cascade school was accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges. [6]

In October 1985, five students went missing on a hike in Lassen County. Two helicopters took part in the search for the missing students. [7]

In September 1998, 85 students and staff members were evacuated from the school due to a nearby forest fire that endangered the school. [8]

The length of their therapeutic programs was between 18 and 23 months. [9] [1] During the program, students would take part in a series of eight therapeutic workshops. [10] These eight workshops were called propheets and they lasted twenty-four hours. [11]

In 2002, the school arranged a wilderness trip to the Warner Mountain District. [12]

The cascade school closed in January 2004. [2] [13] After closure, the campus was sold to Julian Youth Academy. [14]

Cascade school is mentioned by Paris Hilton in her documentary This Is Paris in 2020. [15]
