The Siskiyou School is a thriving community of teachers and families.
We began the 2008-2009 school year with 172 students in grades 1-8 and a faculty of 22 including 8 class teachers and 14 specialty and support teachers.
Our teachers are committed to nurturing the potential of every child, schooling the imagination, and fostering a lifelong love of learning.
We strive to prepare students to meet the world with a caring heart, confidence in their own gifts, and a strong academic foundation.
As a developing Siskiyou School, we endeavor to teach the child through "head, hands and heart." The Waldorf curriculum instills a living wisdom that enriches the intellect and deepens the natural joy and wonder of learning, integrating the arts in both academic and practical activities.
