Introducing a truly holistic education...

For nearly 90 years, Waldorf schools have been leaders in providing students, from newborns to teenagers, with a truly holistic education. Every Waldorf student is seen as a unique human being developing physically, emotionally, socially, intellectually and morally. From learning to tie their shoes to grappling with atomic theory, Waldorf students are taught in a socially responsible, intellectually engaging, and motivational manner. Waldorf graduates enter the world with clarity of thought, a caring heart and the confidence to initiate change.

Parents choose Waldorf because of:

  • rigorous academics enlivened by fine and practical arts, languages, music & drama
  • excellent teacher-parent relations
  • emphasis on family and community values
  • a strong reputation for environmentalism
  • expertise in child development

Researchers say each child learns differently; that teachers should use multiple methods to ensure each child understands. That's why a balanced, holistic approach is so important. That's also why, with 2500 schools and kindergartens around the globe, Waldorf education is one of the fastest growing independent school movements in the world.
