Hear from current parents

The warmth of the teachers, the love of learning they instill, the reverence for the natural world we get to experience as a family, and the deep way my children are taught how to think (as opposed to just memorization) are just a few of the things that I really appreciate about Madison Waldorf School.
Madison Waldorf School has been a game-changer for our family. What sets it apart is the genuine care they pour into the kids, focusing not just on academics but on their social-emotional intelligence.
The staff is passionate and welcoming, cultural differences are celebrated, and in a world full of screens and noise this place reminds us to hold space for simple joys and beauty in the everyday moments.
