We designed the Headwaters to help students transition from middle school into high school and to learn how to think and learn in a project-based learning model. It is built on the idea of scaffolded learning situations, exemplary project process modeling, and student risk taking all of which teach life skills needed in the real world.
Upcoming Events
May is the annual Northwest Passage High School Explore Your World event.
In the best of times, we would all be on campus for a celebration of our school, the community, and our shared love of exploring. With this year being a bit different, we are going to try something new and have moved the Explore Your World event online. You can find more information in the top menu under the Explore Your World tab, or click the images below.
We look forward to seeing you all on campus some day soon, but for now, we’re giving this a shot.
