San Francisco Waldorf School—where students strive for more than just the right answer

“With this complicated, globalized world, there is a lot to take in, and Waldorf gives kids this foundation. It teaches deep listening and how to be aware of your surroundings. It is the creative foundation of the work that I'm doing.”    

“Riding the bus to school, walking around the city streets, I had diverse interactions with people and I was learning every day. It was important to have the Waldorf educational experience to encourage my imagination and it was important to expose myself to the harshness and rawness of the city.”    

"Something we learn at Waldorf is to be constantly challenged in many subjects like music, athletics, and academics. We're not challenged in a competitive way but in a cooperative way."

“The integration of art into everything else at Waldorf is the reason I started out as a double major in art and environmental science in college, and I’m pleasantly surprised by how relevant that background is for pursuing a PhD in biology.”
