Eugene Waldorf School, Eugene | Fees, Rankings, Address, Admission, Vacancies, Reviews & More

I highly recommend this school. It is everything I want to give my child. The teachers are the best one could find—highly experienced and wonderful all around. Part of this excellence of the teachers arises from the fact that on the same campus is a Waldorf Teacher Training program. So whenever there is a teacher opening, only the very best are chosen. All of the teachers are Waldorf certified, which is not true of all Waldorf schools. The children at this school are received for who they really are. Their gifts are nurtured and they are taught a basic old-fashioned respect for other beings. They are given so many invaluable tools at this school that will nourish them through their lives. Each child here will develop her or his own unique voice and be able to contribute that voice to shaping the world. Each child learns how to play music, sing, move (in eurythmy training), act, paint, draw, knit, sew and use their hands. They are better prepared academically for high school and college than most children in public schools. But beyond that, the creative skills they acquire and the myriad ways their imaginations are fostered will serve them their whole lives. I cannot say enough good things about this school.

We couldn’t be happier about moving to the state of Oregon to attend this lovely school. We experienced public schooling with our four children, before we learned about Waldorf. We loved the idea that the whole child is educated (hands, head, and heart,) and are amazed by how the curriculum does this so beautifully. The kids learn to think in freedom, paint, move, sculpt, carve, sing, and are surrounded by so much beauty everyday. Amazing teachers and teacher training staff. Beautiful community. Sibling discount a bonus!

Do you know any kids, including your own, who leave for school excited and joyful at the prospect and come home equally excited and joyful about what they had done and learned that day?

Maybe not every child attending Eugene Waldorf School feels this way. But I know from my own daughter’s experience and my observations of her friends and classmates, it is the norm rather than the exception.
