Cedar Crest Academy – Park Highland is the original campus of Cedar Crest Academy, an independent early-years and elementary school in Bellevue, Washington. Cedar Crest Academy was founded by educators Gail Domingos and Geeta Vyas, who opened its doors on 7 January 2003 with the aim of giving highly capable children accelerated academics in a warm setting that also nurtures social and emotional growth. It now educates around 630 children across four campuses on Seattle's Eastside. Opened in 2003 and renovated in 2019, Park Highland offers Preschool, Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten in five classrooms for up to 90 children, giving it a small, family feel. It sits in central Bellevue near I-405 and borders the Bellevue Botanical Garden, which teachers use for nature walks and outdoor exploration. The Pre-Primary curriculum is academic and theme-based, with specialist lessons in world languages, art, music, health and fitness and drama, and teacher ratios of about 10 to one. A full-time chef prepares organic meals and snacks on site, and before- and after-school care extends the day from 8am to 6pm. Children can continue into elementary school at Cedar Crest's Bellewood campus.
