Welcome & Introduction
Our administrator will welcome you and share a bit about the history of our school and the heart of Waldorf Education. A subject or class teacher will then offer a glimpse into their work with the children — what they teach, how they teach it, and why it matters. We'll leave time for your questions and reflections.
Morning in the Classroom
You'll then be welcomed into your grandchild or friend’s classroom to sit alongside them and experience a morning lesson firsthand; a wonderful chance to see their day, their teacher, and their community in action (approximately 20–40 minutes).
Visiting More Than One Student?
If you'll be visiting multiple grandchildren or friends, a helper will guide you to the next classroom at the 20-minute mark, so you're able to spend time in each space.
