About

Tuition
A high school like no other, Tara offers an engaging Waldorf® curriculum, world travel & compelling theater. The heart of our vision is the belief that deep collaborative work in the performing arts inspires an all-encompassing love of learning. Further kindled by the passion/expertise of our faculty and direct experience of culture & history through travel, this enthusiasm leads to academic excellence. The spirit of ensemble – commitment to each other, the school, the community and the world – is embodied in our substance agreement & honor code and permeates every aspect of this education. Tara is striving to balance health & safety with the opportunities our curriculum offers. From spring 2020’s distance-learning to the full 2020/21 school year during which all plays, festivals, academic classes and (modified) trips took place in person, we have learned much about meeting the needs of the community while prioritizing the healthy mental, physical and emotional growth of our students.

Tara Performing Arts High School Reviews
Overall fantastic school! You won’t find one like it anywhere else on the planet!
The atmosphere among the students is very friendly and supportive, in fact I really look forward to school every day.
We learn in truly unique ways through theater, travel as well as first hand experiences, and delving into depth and meaning in every subject. It’s a blessing to be at Tara, where I have expanded in individual growth as well as being able to be a part of the bigger picture. I look forward to the rest of my high school experience with Tara.
