My daughter is really enjoying this school. We are very happy with the approach to teaching and learning. Students engage in multi-modal, multi-sensory, interactive learning that my daughter finds engaging and creative. The learning sinks in deeply.
The Waldorf curriculum seeks to meet the student at their current level of development and help them connect to their own answers to deeper life questions while supporting them to engage with the world around them in a beneficial way. There is emphasis on connecting to one’s own self, each other, and the wider community.
Teachers are deeply dedicated to the students and responsive to parents. This is a small school with a close-knit faculty and lots of opportunities for students to contribute to the school and wider community. There's an active community of parents here.
My husband is a college professor and I am an NP. We greatly value education and are impressed with the learning that is taking place here. Check it out!

Some things about it were good, like AP art class, but some things were very frustrating. It took them a really long time to get us correct schedules at the beginning of the year. The principal is our English teacher because the school can't hire a new one, and she doesn't show up to teach the class half the time. There are many incompetent people here.
I love that the principal and staff know each student by name. My son is in all of the honors classes and enjoys them very much. He is challenged but not overburdened; He is asked to be creative, to problem solve, to work creatively, and to... think! Couldn’t ask for a better High School experience. Love the new transportation opportunities this year as well!
