“I learned to think here. I learned to imagine here. I love Mountain Laurel. In a strange and unsteady world, it’s a castle, a beacon. It will always be my home.”
~ Gideon Sterer (alumnus)
Thank you for your interest in Mountain Laurel Waldorf School. We are part of a worldwide association of Waldorf schools dedicated to bringing forth the full creative potential of each child.
Waldorf education speaks directly to children’s experience, addressing each of the three different ways we relate to the world: through the intellect, the emotions, and the will — the ability to get things done.
The Waldorf approach also recognizes that children have distinct, age-related educational needs according to their particular stages of development. Our goal is that our students meet life’s challenges with clear thinking, balanced emotions, and self-initiative.
We invite you to find out more about Mountain Laurel Waldorf School and Waldorf education. Join us at one of our Open Houses or schedule a Tour.
