Spring Garden Waldorf School
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.
We are committed to educating each child so that he or she will contribute to the future of the world with clear and creative thinking, compassion, moral strength and courage.
Spring Garden Waldorf School is part of the long-standing Waldorf tradition, a worldwide movement putting Rudolf Steiner's educational philosophy into practice.
This method works because it addresses the whole child - cognitive, social, and creative - and meets the needs of each individual through a challenging and multi-sensory environment.
