Who We Are
Since 1982, HeadsUp has brought together parents, educators, business leaders, and community members to expand opportunities for students across San Rafael City Schools. Through the generosity of our community and strong partnerships with the district and school parent organizations, HeadsUp helps make enriching programs and student support services available across our schools.
Together, we invest in opportunities that go beyond what public education funding alone can provide—from arts and physical education to student wellness, college access, and innovative classroom experiences. By combining community resources with the expertise and commitment of our school partners, HeadsUp helps ensure that San Rafael’s 7,000+ students have access to the enriching, supportive educational experiences they need to learn, grow, and thrive.
