ABOUT HEADWATERS ACADEMY

Headwaters Academy is Bozeman's only private, independent middle school for students in grades six through eight. Our mission: To build confident, capable, adaptable learners and leaders for the changing world. We emphasize a low student-to-teacher ratio with small classes. There is currently a waiting list for the 8th grade, and the sixth grade is full. There are two spaces available in the 7th grade. We are now taking applications for the 2010-2011 sixth and eighth grades.

Headwaters Academy was founded in 1990. It has evolved over the years into an inclusive
and collaborative community featuring a classical, yet progressive, educational approa
ch.
Teachers often take their classes to the mountains, rivers, nearby university, and the community to provide the students with an educational foundation that can successfully carry them through the rest of their lives.
