Discover a school where the arts, academics and athletics come alive in a truly integrated curriculum.

Santa Fe Waldorf School offers our students an engaging, comprehensive preschool through high school education to prepare them as thoroughly as possible for all life experiences.

 

Early Childhood
Parent-Child, Preschool and Kindergarten

Nurturing children in an environment steeped in wonder and imagination.

Elementary School
Grades 1 – 5

Weaves the arts and academics together through active experiential learning.

Middle School
Grades 6 – 8

Challenges the power of analysis and understanding through kinetic learning beyond the classroom.

High School
Grades 9 – 12

Advances critical thinking and college preparedness through a rigorous, creative and empowering academic environment.

 

Our curriculum empowers and stimulates young minds as they develop in a supportive and safe environment.

The principles of Waldorf Education evolve from an understanding of human development that addresses the needs of the growing child. Our small class sizes allow students to receive individual attention in a supportive environment and develop meaningful relationships with their peers and their teachers.
