Developed by Rudolf Steiner in 1919, Waldorf Education is based on a profound understanding of human development that addresses the needs of the growing child. Waldorf teachers strive to transform education into an art that educates the whole child—the heart and the hands, as well as the head. Waldorf schools acknowledge and respect the natural gifts of each person, encouraging and challenging students to achieve their fullest human potential. The goal is to awaken and foster in students: A Sense of Wonder - Creative and inquiring minds - A well-rounded belief in their capacities - Strength of Will, Character, and Intellect - Compassion for and interest in all life.
