We are grateful and honored to participate in Lancaster County’s ExtraGive, Lancaster’s largest day of giving!

💭🤔 But what, exactly, is ExtraGive?

ExtraGive, organized by the Lancaster County Community Foundation, is a 24-hour online giving event that unites our entire community in support of local nonprofits.

It’s your opportunity to make your donation do MORE for our school! Through matching gifts from generous sponsors, each dollar donated has the potential to raise even more for SWS.

Better yet? When you donate, you have the chance to win exciting prizes donated by our community—from home-baked bread to gift cards and more!

We always end the day with a Family Hang to celebrate our incredible community and say ✨ Thank You ✨ to all who donated.

🗓️ Mark your calendar: ExtraGive 2025 is Friday, November 21! Donations can only be made that day, so don’t miss it! Keep an eye out for emails and posts to stay on top of matching hours and prizes.

Thank you for your generous support in helping to make SWS the Best Private School in Lancaster County! 🎉🥇

What is your favorite part of ❄️Winter Faire❄️?

The ✨Secret Shoppe✨ is a beloved tradition for many of our youngest Faire-goers. Stocked with handmade treasures, the Secret Shoppe is only open to children, giving them the opportunity to “shop” for loved ones. Children trade tickets for trinkets, and often find something special for themselves as well!

Our parent volunteers have been hard at work crafting goodies for this year’s shop - we think it might be the best one yet! ⭐️❄️

Share your favorite Winter Faire feature in the comments and be sure to join us on Sunday, Dec. 7 from 11 am to 3 pm.

Susquehanna Waldorf School: The Best Private Schoo

Susquehanna Waldorf School: The Best Private School in Lancaster County - located in the best town in Lancaster County! ✨📍🌳

Nestled along the verdant banks of the Susquehanna River, Marietta, the home of SWS, is a small town with a big heart. 💚

Steeped in history, Marietta boasts some of the oldest businesses and buildings in the area. Many of the beautifully preserved structures hold incredible stories within their walls - including our own! The SWS school building dates back to 1899 and was originally constructed to serve as the borough’s public school. 🏫

Since Marietta’s founding in 1812, the borough has grown and changed, just as our school has. Today, Marietta is not only home to the Best Private School, but also a growing number of wonderful local businesses, dedicated community members, and an ever-evolving list of community-centered events.

Our business community and neighbors have been an integral part of the growth we’ve experienced at SWS and are often our most generous supporters. We are truly grateful for the community-mindedness, commitment to giving back, and willingness to lend a hand that we experience every day in Marietta.

Haven’t visited Marietta yet? Plan your trip today! Stop by SWS for a tour or join us for our ❄️Winter Faire❄️ on Sunday, December 7, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. While you’re here, be sure to visit our amazing local businesses!

In Waldorf education, true learning begins with the human being. 🤝

Our Cyber Civics classes are unique, developmentally mindful lessons that helps students become thoughtful digital citizens. Beginning in middle school, students build a foundation in digital competence, media literacy, research skills, and keyboarding, all grounded in human connection, ethics, empathy, and responsibility.

Through hands-on discussions, collaborative projects, and critical reflection, students learn how technology shapes our thinking and relationships—and how to bring balance, awareness, and intention to their online lives.💻
