At Headwaters Academy, we are committed to an equitable learning environment where everyone belongs and every voice matters.  We are an inclusive community of individuals and families who are diverse in nationality, race, ethnicity, language, culture, customs, religion, spirituality, age, physical ability and disability, cognitive ability and disability, gender identity and expression, sexuality, income, education, work experiences, marital status, parental status, family structure, and more.

We believe diversity of community is essential to a rich educational experience, and we believe an accepting environment supports the full potential of our learners and families. Our dedication to this work is crucial for the long-term success of our microschool.  

Montessori philosophy recognizes each child as a unique individual with distinct needs and identities, leading to an environment that actively promotes diversity, equity, and inclusion.  At Headwaters Academy, we want each child and family to feel a keen sense of belonging.  Together, we will actively work to dismantle barriers that create injustice and foster understanding across the entire microschool community.

Please stay tuned as our founding community further explores diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging during our launch year. We will provide more information as we continually weave these commitments into the fabric of the academy.
