60. The Cascade School

The Cascade School was founded in 1984 by a person who had worked for CEDU. The school was located in a remote location outside Whitmore in California. The curriculum was very much the same used at CEDU. He ran out of money so the school closed in 2003 The campus was turned over to other programs. Lately one of the counselors of a program which occupies the campus left her baby to die. I think that there is a trial going on about it somewhere.

But back then it was not a picnic for the teenagers to be there. If they had the chance they would have run. It doesn’t sound like a fun place for at teenager.
