[quote=Anonymous]Our child is also a graduate of the Washington Waldorf School. I would recommend it to anyone, with one important caveat. It may appear that in the early grades children are not moving at the same pace as children in the same grade elsewhere. Ideally, parents will be comfortable with this difference and recognize that the what's being cultivated is a love of learning and a solid educational foundation. By about the third grade, Waldorf starts to accelerate and the program becomes much more demanding. The middle school and high school are very rigorous. Because Waldorf is a balanced and comprehensive education, children are challenged not just academically, but in the fine arts, music, crafts, movement, and so much more. As someone mentioned above, WWS has a generous financial aid program. While we didn't receive financial aid while at WWS, our child received an academic scholarship that's about equal to what we paid for WWS high school tuition. It's almost as if we got a rebate. :D [/quote]
