Orchards Elementary School

Blue Spruce Montessori Children's House is a nurturing in-home Montessori school located in Vancouver, WA, dedicated to fostering the growth and development of children aged 2.5 to 6 years. The school's core mission is to create a supportive and enriching environment tailored for young learners, including those with diverse needs such as language-based learning disabilities. Through a child-centered approach, Blue Spruce emphasizes hands-on learning and individualized instruction, allowing each child to thrive at their own pace. The school's unique methodology incorporates Montessori principles that encourage independence, creativity, and critical thinking while providing essential social interactions. What sets Blue Spruce apart is its intimate setting, characterized by a low student-teacher ratio that ensures personalized attention and strong family partnerships. This commitment to community fosters an inclusive atmosphere where every child feels valued and supported in their educational journey.

Our Burton Elementary campus on NE 28th Street welcomes families in Evergreen Public Schools. Our regular student day runs from 8:45 a.m. to 3:15 p.m.; early-release days end at 1 p.m. Families can use our school site for menus, bus schedules, the handbook, attendance contacts and Title I/LAP information. Our office can answer grade and learning-support questions or connect you with the right Burton staff member.

Cascade Middle School is part of Evergreen Public Schools in Vancouver, and our Cougar Support Program gives students a structured start each morning. Every weekday before classes, the Activity Room just inside our main entrance opens for tutoring and support with academics, organization, engagement and behavior. No registration is needed, and our teachers rotate in on different days to help in their subject areas. Our counseling team of three school counselors supports students through the middle school years and connects families with youth mental health resources across Clark County. Students can perform in band, choir and orchestra, and our athletics program includes cheer, track, girls' basketball and boys' soccer. After-school meals are available on campus, and the district runs bus routes with stops families can look up.
