My daughter completed her 13 year journey from Kindergarten through High School, Class of 2015, and it was truly a blessing. She is now a happy, healthy and successful college student who attributes a lot of her curiosity and love of learning to her Waldorf education. She has developed a solid work ethic, is engaged in student government, has a genuine interest in others, and is a capable young adult. At The Waldorf School of San Diego, she developed such a depth of learning across many subjects, that her college professors often remark on it. She was taught HOW to think, rather than WHAT to think, which serves her well in life. The Waldorf School of San Diego develops free thinking, well rounded students, with a strong moral compass. They are passionate about their local and global communities and have the capability to get up off the couch and go out and make change in the world! Waldorf education is a true gift for any child!
