One of the great aspects of Headwaters Academy is its small size. This creates a very favorable teacher to student ratio and it also creates a wonderful integration of the entire school community. There is something special in having Middle School and High School students working, interacting, sharing, thinking, and creating on a daily basis. This, combined with the variety, commitment, enthusiasm and dedication of beneficial educational community is created at Headwaters Academy. Headwaters puts time and effort into the richness and value in the diversity of the individual and in the strength of cooperation of society and community. Both of my children have or are attending Headwaters Academy and their lives and mine are enriched by the Headwaters experience. —PETER MCNAIR

In his or her own individual way, each person in the Headwaters community truly contributes to the school. —ANDRA SPURR
