Headwaters Parent Communication Guidelines

Our first priority is your student and our precious time with them. To maximize that time we ask our families to follow these guidelines regarding school communication. We will try and get back to you as soon as possible.

Coming for 23-24: ABSENCES - To report a student absence, click here. We encourage parents and guardians to report student absences for our record keeping regarding excused and unexcused absences as it relates to our attendance policies found in the family handbook. If you do not communicate your child's absence and they are not present for a class, it will be assumed it is an unexcused absence.

To help our students bridge from elementary to high school we encourage students to communicate directly with their teachers about missing assignments before pre-planned absences and during/after unplanned ones in addition to using classroom and blackbaud regarding make up work.

GENERAL QUESTIONS - For general questions about the school, schedules and last minute communication to your student, call 585-9997 or email office@headwatersacademy.org

For student concerns and specific questions about your student, email your child's advisor. If you are uncertain of your child's advisor contact the office and we will help connect you to the right person.

For questions and concerns about our overall curriculum, staff or programming, contact our heads of school at leadership@headwatersacademy.org

Below you'll find some common links you as a parent will need throughout the year to support your student. As we work to grow confident and capable learners and help them bridge from childhood through adolescence, don't forget to always ask your student questions first, they know a lot even if they are reticent to share with you!
