Our Faculty and Staff
THE JOY OF TEACHING
Our faculty is committed to excellence in teaching as well as the cultivation of a healthy social life in the school’s community. All faculty members are engaged in continuing study of Waldorf Education, subjects they teach, and wider educational issues of our time.
The faculty and staff together administer the school with support from the Board of Trustees. This gives the teachers, who are in daily contact with the students, the authority to respond directly to their needs and their parents’ concerns.
