Founded in 2001, we design vibrant learning environments across our three campuses: our Springs Campus (Early Childhood), our Creek Campus (Elementary), and our River Campus (Middle & High School).Headwaters School is an International Baccalaureate® (IB) World School offering the Diploma Programme.
