To the Washington Waldorf sock-puppeteer: It’s coming off a little desperate.

WES IS STILL ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS FOR THE 2025-2026 SCHOOL YEAR IN A FEW GRADES. CONTACT THE ADMISSION OFFICE (admissions@w-e-s.org) WITH INTEREST.

+1 I had a friend who got her daughter into WES in September a few years ago because public was going to badly.

Also Mater Amoris which goes through MS.

Both progressive, Montessori schools.

Definitely check out Evergreen School. The school offers 2 campuses one in Silver Spring and one in Rockville .

St Bernadette is a small school with a great community feel. Very welcoming and probably a reasonable commute for families at SSFS. They are full next year for pre-k, 4th, and 7th but maybe there is some wiggle room.

A few years ago Field took in new upperclassmen for my DCs class. Might still?

+1 for Washington Waldorf School! Not enough people know about it, and I think families attracted to SSFS would find a lot to appreciate at WWS. They still have space in the high school (and some grades) for students who are a good fit and want a holistic, rigorous and socially conscious education!

WES is really heavy on boys in the middle ES grades, so if looking for spots for girls, that could be an easier admit….

+1 Waldorf also goes through grade 12. Many people don’t know that.
