Waldorf-inspired, tuition-free, holistic, K-8 public education

Educate the whole child.

"Receive the children in reverence, Educate them in love, Let them go forth in freedom." – Rudolf Steiner

"It's a wonderful day at Winterberry."

The principles of Waldorf education evolve from an understanding of child development and prioritizes the needs of the growing child. Our school allows for the gentle unfolding of each child, all in an effort to develop healthy, resilient, whole human beings.

Here, teachers are uniquely trained to cultivate the innate potential of each child and feed a lifelong love of learning through connection, presence, play and storytelling. Winterberry students experience writing, literature, legends and myths, poetry and physical movement, world languages, the beauty of math, science, music, handwork, and lessons that come alive through storytelling, art and the wonders of the natural world.
