The Chicago Waldorf School has been bringing Waldorf education to Chicago since 1974.
The Chicago Waldorf School provides a diverse Pre-K-12th grade education that supports the development of self-directed young adults dedicated to the pursuit of ongoing learning and eager to contribute positively to the global society of the 21st century. This education is rooted in the ideals, insights and pedagogical methods of Rudolf Steiner, who stated: “Our highest endeavor must be to develop free human beings, who are able of themselves to impart purpose and direction to their lives.”
