Overview
The Children`s Garden was incorporated in 1988 by a local family in pursuit of quality childcare.
Disappointed by the poor selection of nurturing environments for their young daughter, the couple found most programs to be lacking the individual, loving touch personalized childcare should emanate.
After the birth of their second child, they proceeded to open what has become one of Portland`s most loved and adored early childhood learning centers.
Cedarwood Waldorf School is a warm and vibrant community of committed teachers and parents dedicated to the physical, emotional, spiritual, and intellectual development of children. Established in 1997, Cedarwood offers pre-kindergarten through 8th grade and a full array of subject classes, including music, Spanish, Japanese, movement, eurythmy, Cyber Civics, handwork and woodworking.
Cedarwood is located in Portland, Oregon, just south of downtown at 3030 SW Second Avenue in the historic Neighborhood House, across the street from Lair Hill Park.
Waldorf education cultivates social and emotional intelligence and academic excellence, creating a strong foundation for the whole child
