Third grade is farming year!! Our third graders took their first trip to Heritage Creek Farm Camp and Education Center last week and harvested 27 pounds of green beans!

Planting, harvesting, and studying the seasons and their associated crops as they pertain to soil health and quality are part of the active farming third graders learn. This is one of the many things that makes SWS, and Waldorf education, special!

SWS Kindergarteners courageously journeyed into the woods in search for the dreadful dragon. With their capes around them, they followed the dragon's path and, with the help of the archangel known as St. Michael, tamed the dragon with the sword of justice! Such bravery and inner strength! Happy Michaelmas from SWS! 🐉 🐉 🐉

“SWS teaches children to truly enjoy learning by

“SWS teaches children to truly enjoy learning by engaging students with their subjects. When I toured SWS for the first time, I observed a class painting portraits. I made a comment about loving art classes but was told the class was actually learning Algebra and that they were painting the portrait of the inventor of Algebra. I was so blown away, not only because I did not know there was an "inventor" of Algebra, but because the whole concept of immersive and engaging learning really clicked for me at that moment. " - Courtney Kokus, SWS Parent

Cultivating a love of learning through integrating art into our main subjects makes SWS special!

The school is buzzing as we prepare for Michaelmas

The school is buzzing as we prepare for Michaelmas this week! Stepping Stone and Kindergarten students dyed their capes by hand with marigolds and osage orange. Our early childhood students will be celebrating Michaelmas tomorrow and we'll have a very special Festival of Michaelmas with our grades students on Friday!

Michaelmas is an ancient festival that's celebrated as summer's warmth fades and the cool crispness of autumn falls upon us. Stories of good versus evil are often told to illuminate the balance of light and dark that we must all strive toward mastering. Our favorite Michaelmas story is that of St. George taming the dragon with the sword of justice and courage given to him by the Archangel known as St. Michael.

Celebrating seasonal festivals is one of the many things that makes SWS, and Waldorf education, special! If you'd like to learn more about our school by the river, sign up for our upcoming Fall Open House on Saturday, October 22nd from 10am - 12pm (noon). Can't make it?
