Description
K-12 Educators may meet all their needs for professional development and salary enhancement with The Heritage Institute's continuing education courses. All courses offer Antioch University Seattle quarter credits.
We are a diverse group from all parts of the US who share many values in common-values that lie at the core of the institute itself. We are moved by the social and economic injustices of the world and feel a need to speak out and take action. We share a love of nature and a deep sense of commitment to living simply so that others may simply live. For that reason, we are deeply concerned about the threat to nature and the whole community of life caused by the thinking, values, life styles and politics of our society as a whole. Above all, we see our separate lives and our
work together as forms of personal and spiritual practice; we commit to reflect on our calling relative to all that we are and do. In one way or another, we are all teachers as well as students, and we have a calling to help children grow into adults who are happy and fully self-realized. We make this calling a reality at The Heritage Institute through the service and programs we offer to inspire teachers. We hale from all over the country and were all drawn to the Northwest and Whidbey Island, in particular, for its natural beauty and the promise of a more whole way of living. Our office is located at the south end of Whidbey Island 45 minutes north of Seattle in Washington State. From our windows we see the Cascade Mountains and Puget Sound in the distance-while just across the way in the tall evergreens we see eagles watching over us, inspiring us to be peaceful and work towards a just and sustainable future. They call us to rise above the ordinary, and we heed that call.
