Description

Kimberton Waldorf School offers a developmentally appropriate, experiential approach to education. We integrate the arts and academics for children from preschool through twelfth grade, seeking to inspire a life-long love of learning in all students and to enable each to fully develop his or her unique capacities.

At Kimberton Waldorf School, we provide a rich academic curriculum taught through the prism of creative thinking. The reason is simple. Mathematics requires creative problem-solving skills. Physics requires creative problem-solving skills. And creating a sustainable future certainly requires creative problem-solving skills.

Our curriculum is broad and comprehensive; it is structured to respond to the developmental phases of childhood. Our teachers know that the best way to give meaningful support to the child is to understand these phases fully and to provide “age appropriate” content that nourishes healthy growth for the Waldorf student. Music, dance and theater, writing, literature, legends and myths are not simply subjects to be read about and tested. They are experienced.
