About the Waldorf School: Part of a worldwide association of independent Waldorf schools, the Sarasota Waldorf School is a private school, located in Sarasota Florida. It offers Nursery, Kindergarten, Grades 1-5 and Parent Child Circles as well as Adult Education programs. The students are nurtured through a supportive structured and non-competitive environment, using a time-tested Waldorf curriculum. Waldorf trained teachers strive to awaken and encourage a child’s innate capacities, rather than merely imposing intellectual content on the child. It offers a classic academic curriculum, fully integrating the fine and practical arts. www.sarasotawaldorf.org.
"We chose Waldorf education because it educates the whole child – meaning the heart as well as the mind. Through a gentle, natural process that enables the true spirit and beauty of the child to shine through." says a Sarasota Waldorf School parent.
