Kids at Rodeo Beach taking in the afternoon sun.Headlands Institute earns marks from students and teachers alike.

All of us hope for that magic moment when everyone is paying attention and you've 'got them'...the lights come on and so does the excitement about learning. In the classroom, we are lucky if that happens once a grading period, at Headlands Institute it happens every day. It's incredible to see our students learning the state science standards in such a fun and inspirational way.

The natural beauty is exceptional. The great services, including the food and classrooms, were more than I expected. Keep up the good work. It's opportunities like this that create desire in young people to be responsible.
- Parent-chaperone

Our educator was amazing—patient, thoughtful, kind, wonderful. She really got to know the students this week. She modeled citizenship and group ethics at all times. Her passion for the subject matter shines through.

I'd recommend this program to others because it brought out the best in me and it will in them.
- 6th grade student

These trips are an unbelievably important and unique experience for my students, and they are a source of memories that will last a lifetime.
- Principal 

I truly believe that the students learn more about the natural world and about their own capabilities in their one week at Headlands Institute than they do in their entire school year.
