This building was the precursor to an existing Adventist academy in the North Pacific Union Conference. During the 1920s it housed 10 grades of students who were trained to partner with area pastors and churches for evangelistic visitation throughout a major Northwest city. Here’s a clue: The current academy is very near to an Adventist medical center. What was the original school called? What is its current name?

My Mother, Carol Bakke, thinks it might be the Doremus school (? spelling) and was located near the old Sunnyside church on Stark St.. She remembers hearing about it as a school before Portland Junior Academy which was located on Couch street which is near Providence Medical Center.
