Waldorf School of the Peninsula

Waldorf education is often described as a modern renaissance education, resulting in students who are cultured and knowledgeable, educated, and proficient in a wide range of fields, and possess the confidence and skills necessary to thrive in college, the workplace and in life. Key areas of focus include the development of critical thinking, a highly developed ethical compass, and a lifelong love of learning, while at the same time fostering creativity, innovation, cooperation, and strong communication skills. These are the tools our children need in order to thrive and lead in the 21st century world. In addition to our rich curriculum, signature streams for our high school include experiential and interdisciplinary learning, technology transformation, social and emotional development, service learning and social justice, and environmental stewardship. WSP high school follows an innovative assessment policy that focuses on the goal of intrinsic learning rather than rewards-based grades.
