Waldorf Journey
We welcome families who believe that childhood should be filled with adventure, awe, and wonder. Classes are intentionally small to ensure every child is deeply known by their educators. We are now accepting applications for the 2026–2027 school year.

How to Apply
Our admissions process is designed to be warm, unhurried, and centered on the child and family — not on paperwork or performance.
01
Schedule a Tour
Attend an Open House or schedule a campus tour. We encourage all prospective families to visit in person and experience the warmth of our community firsthand.
02
Submit Your Application
Complete our online application, which includes a questionnaire and your child’s developmental history. We welcome children of all backgrounds and abilities who are ready to explore.
03
Interview
Shortly after you submit your application, the class teacher will contact you to set up an interview to meet you and your child. Families are typically notified of the admissions decision within one week after the interview.
04
Trial Days
For Grades applicants, trial days are scheduled following the interview — an opportunity for your child to participate with the class for 3 to 5 days. The faculty then makes a collaborative enrollment decision. Upon acceptance, a nonrefundable enrollment deposit is due.
