Washington Waldorf School
At Washington Waldorf, teachers encourage the connections that broaden students’ experience and help them grow in new directions. Teachers incorporate academic, artistic, and practical elements into every subject, creating memorable lessons—strong individuals and highly successful scholars—along the way.
Mission
The Washington Waldorf School cultivates each student’s capacity to think clearly, feel compassionately, and act purposefully in the world. It is committed to the educational movement inspired by the pioneering work of Rudolf Steiner and advanced by Waldorf teachers worldwide.
Our school and its diverse community provide an oasis to fully and freely develop the capacities of each child. Since its founding in 1964, the teaching and curriculum have emphasized the healthy development of the heart, body and mind through imaginative play, meaningful work and expressive arts in a natural environment. We see in Waldorf Education the opportunity to build a better society.
