Giving

Greats & Grands

At Headwaters School, students are not passive recipients of education—they are collaborators. We don’t simply deliver learning to them; we create it with them. That’s what allows them to think boldly, wrestle with complex ideas, and truly soar.

We invite grandparents and significant elders to see this distinctive, student-centered experience in action. Come witness the confidence, curiosity, and joy that define a Headwaters education.

When you give during Greats & Grands, you are investing directly in the future our students are building—supporting the adventurous, expressive, deeply human learning that shapes thoughtful leaders. It’s a way to honor the joy of the school, sustain it for the next generation, and pay forward the opportunity for every child to rise with confidence and purpose.
