School Notes Overview: |
Since 1928, the Rudolf Steiner School has been preparing students to meet the challenges of modern life. Our education is based on a deep understanding of the needs of the growing child and the maturing adolescent. Through our rich curriculum and innovative teaching methods, we address the whole child, working to develop clarity in thought, balance in feeling, and conscience and initiative in action. Our rigorous academic program challenges students to develop clear, creative thought and expression, and our nurturing social environment gives students confidence. The Rudolf Steiner School embraces Waldorf education, a pedagogy derived from the insights of Austrian-born scientist, philosopher, artist, and educator Rudolf Steiner. The program addresses the physical, emotional, and intellectual capacities of the developing child through an age-appropriate curriculum that integrates the disciplines of movement, fine arts, and practical arts into the study of humanities, science, math, and technology. Through the development of these capacities, we strive to educate the whole human being in a healthy and balanced manner.
