Spring Garden Waldorf School is a private, non-sectarian, coed school that provides education for a diverse group of children from age three through the eighth grade. Check the Calendar of Events for a listing of Parent-Child classes for children ages 18 months to 4 years.
Spring Garden strives to create a school environment that allows the students to develop a strong sense of self that will serve as the foundation for effective learning. Our goal is to provide a balanced education that places equal emphasis on developing the students academic, physical, artistic and social abilities.
At Spring Garden Waldorf School we will:
- Nurture the spiritual life of the child without teaching religious doctrine.
- Develop a strong work ethic in the children by setting challenging goals for student to achieve, developing intrinsic motivation, and focusing on the quality of work as well as the completion of tasks.
- Nurture, love and respect the children while allowing them to grow and develop at their own pace.
- Recognize that children learn in a variety of ways. The curriculum is designed to foster strengths of a wide range of learning styles.
- Provide an open atmosphere that is appealing to individuals from all cultures
- Build strong parent-teacher relationships for the education of the children
- Provide an excellent educational option for the greater community
