Signature Programs
Each student is unique - that’s why we created age-appropriate ways to let them develop their talents and skills.

Heathwood Hall Signature Programs
We never miss an opportunity to ignite a lifelong love of learning. Different signature programs, offered in different stages of development, allow children the freedom to explore their unique interests as they develop over time.
Community Service
Through their work on service projects in every grade level, students learn about how they can participate in and improve our community.
Habitat Day
Learning in nature is a crucial element of the Heathwood experience. Habitat Day allows Early Childhood students to study nature in the five habitats we have here on campus—pond, field, wetlands, forest, and river—and complete a project that culminates in a presentation to their families.
Honors Science Research Program
This program is designed for students interested in STEM who want to challenge themselves. We provide authentic laboratory experiences that prepare students for future success in the sciences.
LEAP Week
LEAP Week (Learning, Engagement, Action, Possibilities) in the Lower School is a week when the regular curriculum is suspended for part of the day to give students the opportunity to explore other interests and discover new passions.
Mindful in the Hall
Research suggests that for adolescents, enhanced mindfulness is one of the most productive paths toward both academic success and overall wellbeing. Our unique mindfulness training for middle schoolers supports self-management, self-awareness, social awareness, relationships, and responsible decision making.
PEAK
PEAK is our signature outdoor leadership and adventure program which provides students of all ages hands-on opportunities in wilderness exploration, environmental education, and leadership development.
Senior Exhibition
Senior Exhibition is a yearlong, scholarly research project required of every Heathwood senior. Students write a paper on the topic of their choosing, and demonstrate mastery of their topic with a public presentation.
Visual Arts Concentration
This Upper School program teaches young artists how to hone their skills through extensive arts coursework and extended studio time.
Winterim
A week-long experiential learning program allows Upper School students to pursue an interest that broadens their educational experience. Students may complete internships, perform community service, or travel nationally or internationally.
