Marin Waldorf School
The mission of Marin Waldorf School is to educate children to reach their highest potential with activities that fire the imagination, engage the mind, and strengthen the will.
“In linking their curriculum and schooling toward children’s developmental stages, Waldorf schools seem to have a unique sense of what children are ready for. They promote creativity and critical thinking in an interdisciplinary fashion...exactly the direction public education needs to move towards.”
We are still accepting applications for the 2024/2025 school year!
Founded in 1972, Marin Waldorf School is the only accredited Waldorf school in Marin County. Our school is grounded in the time-tested Waldorf approach to education, while striving to meet the world today with a holistic educational program that considers social justice, equity, diversity, and environmental stewardship throughout the curriculum. For more than 50 years, Marin Waldorf School has offered a vibrant, experiential, and interdisciplinary curriculum that blends math, sciences, art, music, performance, healthy movement, language arts, and outdoor education.
Our approach to elementary and middle school education is distinguished by its emphasis on hands-on experiences, interdisciplinary learning, social-emotional skills, and artistic expression throughout the curriculum. Math, language arts, science, and world languages are taught in a progressively complex sequence throughout the grades program, with a curriculum that is carefully designed to stimulate and challenge children at each stage of growth.
