FACULTY & STAFF

OUR TEAM

We bring together families, teachers, alumni and supporters who are dedicated to the principles of Waldorf education and to creating a joyful and inspiring community experience. School life centers on our students’ well-being, teachers’ commitment and collaborative work, an active parent body and a curriculum that makes children remarkable, curious and creative. We seek to discover creative and innovative ways to work, educate and celebrate together.
