Waldorf High School of Massachusetts Bay
Belmont, Massachusetts
We believe that Waldorf education is uniquely suited to the journey of the adolescent. The task of teenagers is to discover their individual strengths, their unexpected passions, and their lifelong directions. Because learning at Waldorf always occurs on multiple levels--in the classroom and out in the world, with hands and eyes, through art, music, and travel as much as reading, writing, and discussion--our students have an unlimited canvas on which to sketch their identities and envision their futures. The richness of our curriculum and the opportunity to learn with all our senses and abilities enable us to set higher goals.
School Mission
Our mission is to provide a Waldorf secondary education both to students who are continuing their Waldorf education and to students finding Waldorf education for the first time. Our education supports the physical, spiritual, social, and intellectual development of our students.
