You're warmly invited to join us for Intro to Waldorf!
This is a wonderful opportunity for anyone curious about Waldorf education to learn more, connect, and experience the heart of our community. Whether you're a prospective family, current parent, grandparent, or friend, all are welcome!
Please note, that this program is best experienced cohesively. We encourage you to plan to be present the entire time rather than drop-in as if it were an open house.
Discover Waldorf: A Meaningful First Step into Your Child’s Educational Journey
Imagine seeing the world of learning through your child’s eyes. As a prospective parent, you’re invited to step into the Waldorf classroom and experience the nurturing, inspiring environment where children grow intellectually, creatively, and emotionally.
During this hands-on visit, you’ll gain authentic insight into the unique philosophy that guides every aspect of Waldorf education—an approach that honors childhood, fosters curiosity, and builds strong foundations for lifelong learning.
Hear directly from our dedicated teachers, engaged parents, and accomplished alumni as they share how Waldorf has shaped not just academic success, but confident, compassionate human beings.
This is more than an introduction—it’s an invitation to see how your child’s full potential can flourish in a place where learning truly comes to life.
February 2026 Agenda
This agenda is for the February 28, 2026 program. We look forward to seeing you!
Dropping of a child for childcare?
Please dress your child in clothing that’s appropriate for indoor and outdoor play based on the weather.
Pack a nut-free snack that your child will eat. We will offer snacks around 10:00.
Pack a full water bottle.
Bring indoor shoes or have your child in non-slip socks. This allows us to keep our rooms clean.
Please let us know at drop off if your child has any allergies and if you’re ok with us helping them with bathroom support or if you would rather we come get you.
The Waldorf curriculum nurtures the whole child by integrating academics, arts, and practical skills in a way that aligns with the child’s natural stages of development.

The Importance of Play-based Learning in Early Education
This IES blog outlines how play-based learning supports 21st-century skills—like creativity, collaboration, communication, critical thinking, and confidence—as well as social, emotional, language, and early math outcomes.
"The need for imagination, a sense of truth, and a feeling of responsibility—these are the three forces which are the very nerve of education."
—Rudolf Steiner
