The Waldorf School of St. Louis offers students rigorous academics in a developmentally appropriate environment. At the Spring Open House, prospective families can tour the classrooms and campus, discover the school's Early Childhood and Grade School curriculum and meet with the experienced faculty.
The Waldorf School of St. Louis aims to make learning enriching, relevant and meaningful to help students develop intrinsic motivation and inspire a lifetime of learning. The Waldorf approach considers and caters to each area of a child's three-fold being - their body, mind, and unique spirit. The Waldorf curriculum is designed to inspire these elements and provide the lessons and environment that help students develop their full potential.
Academics and the arts are integrated with abundant physical movement, outdoor time, and hands-on experiences to immerse students in developing a lifelong love of learning.
The Spring Open House will be held Saturday, April 9 at 9 a.m. Registration is required.
