Upper Columbia Academy's history began in the 1920s when Yakima Valley Academy was formed. That school had to close down because the young people were causing it to split at the seams. Walls were held together by metal cables mounted on both sides of the rooms. They had to find a more prominent place. Elder Mote, Upper Columbia Conference president at the time, was permitted by constituents to spend no more than $100,000 for a school. Surprisingly, Elder Mote's was the only bid, and YVA got it, along with 15 hogs that they sold for $1500 to provide operating capital for the first year of school. After the move, the academy was renamed Upper Columbia Academy. Cor…
