About Our School

We honor Waldorf principles while adapting flexibly to each child's needs and our community context. Our curriculum emphasizes artistic expression and practical skills alongside academics, creating a holistic learning environment. Students develop not just academic competence but also imagination, creativity, and the values that support meaningful contribution to their communities.


Educational Philosophy: Diversity enriches our community and strengthens everyone's learning. We actively build inclusive practices that welcome and support students from all backgrounds while celebrating our differences. We believe students learn better together when their school community reflects the diversity of the broader world.

Linnea S.

I'm passionate about progressive education and believe strongly in the power of student-centered learning. My teaching approach emphasizes inquiry, collaboration, and authentic assessment. I love watching students light up when they make connections and take ownership of their learning. I have experience with project-based learning, Socratic seminars, and differentiated instruction. In my free time, I'm an avid reader, amateur photographer, and volunteer at the local library.
