We, the Susquehanna Waldorf School, are an independent school rooted in the international movement and philosophy of Waldorf education.
The Susquehanna Waldorf School strives to cultivate a love of learning, imagination, reverence and compassion for others by educating the whole child-head, heart and hands.
Committed to academic excellence, the Waldorf curriculum blends clear thinking with a depth of feeling and creative initiative to prepare children for the challenges of the future.
Our mission is to provide a nurturing and challenging environment that inspires our students to reach the highest levels of intellectual, spiritual, artistic, and physical achievement.
The faculty and staff work in partnership with the larger school community to keep this environment vital, dynamic, and diverse.
Through the integration of academic and artistic pursuits, we honor the potential within each child to fully develop his/her unique abilities.
Our students acquire a lifelong love of learning and a sense of compassion and joy that benefits them, their community, and their world at large.
I couldn`t have picked a better education for my children. It has changed our family in the most positive way possible. The learning style, the community, and everything about this school is the exact environment I want my children in.

Our family relocated to Lancaster County after a statewide school search. Susquehanna Waldorf offers a whole-person education, caring for the mind, spirit and will of each child. Our daughters are currently enrolled in Kindergarden and First Grade. We deeply appreciate that the Early Childhood program nurtures our youngest daughter, allowing for creative and imaginative play, without pushing her to begin academics. Our First Grader, who is school-ready, is offered a rich and wonderful curriculum (including Spanish and Mandarin classes).
