The 67-year-old Cascade Middle School will be replaced by a modern and efficient building with construction to begin this summer. After nearly a year of planning and meetings with the local design team from Rowell Brokaw Architects, the new Cascade will be built directly behind the current school. Move-in is scheduled to take place over Winter Break in 2023. The Willamette High School softball field will be relocated near the WHS gym and will feature a lighted artificial turf playing surface.
