About 

We believe that Waldorf education is uniquely suited to the journey of the adoles- cent. The task of teenagers is to discover their individual strengths, their unex- pected passions, and their lifelong directions. Because learning at Waldorf always occurs on multiple levels--in the classroom and out in the world, with hands and eyes, through art, music, and travel as much as reading, writing, and discus- sion--our students have an unlimited canvas on which to sketch their identities and envision their futures.

The richness of our curriculum and the opportunity to learn with all our senses and abilities enable us to set higher goals.

We strive for every student to:

Develop clear thinking, strong will, and sensitivity
Find their place within their natural and social environment Discover the complex currents and forces that shape our lives

At Waldorf High School, every day, every subject, and every teacher is dedicated to these goals. 

Highlights

• The Waldorf method is practiced in over 1000 schools worldwide and represents over 90 years of insight into the developmental stages and education of adolescents.
• The curriculum is designed to directly address the questions that adolescents live with throughout the four high school years.
• At the heart of the Waldorf tradition is the “Main Lesson Block,” an uninterrupted hour and 35-minute class in various topics explored in three to five week blocks.
