Observation
Days/Parent-Education Events have concluded for 2012-13. 2013-14 dates will be announced.
The
best way to decide if Sanderling Waldorf School is right for your child
and your family is to experience it for yourself. We invite you to join
us at one or more of the following events. Please note that these
events begin
promptly on time
(we will be unable to accommodate latecomers); are for adults
only
(except the Family Open Houses) and require
an RSVP.
Each observation/parent-education event lasts 90 minutes. We look
forward to
seeing you there.

Parent-Education
Evening: "Why Waldorf Works" - An Evening With Waldorf Graduates
February 13
6:30 p.m.
(adults
only; please arrive a few minutes
early to sign in)
A
Waldorf Grade School is different from any other. Come interact with a
panel of expert teachers and Waldorf-school graduates, who will explain
from a
personal perspective how this developmentally appropriate education
creates a lifelong love of learning. "What happens after 8th grade?" is
a common question ... get the answers from
former Waldorf students
themselves. This annual event is designed to offer interested
individuals a window into the life perspectives of others who have been
through the Waldorf experience. Guests should expect a unique evening
of conversation and insight, rather than a comprehensive overview of
the "nuts and bolts" of Waldorf education.
Family Open
House
October 2012 & March 16, 2013
10 a.m. - noon
Bring the entire family and stop by for
a visit! We'll have crafts, live music, puppet shows and much
more.
Come meet the teachers, staff and parents, and check out the
classrooms, the
garden and the play areas. Don't miss the home-baked goodies, coffee,
tea and
fresh juices. Our school community will be happy to welcome you to this
favorite biannual
event.
IMPORTANT NOTE
REGARDING BRINGING CHILDREN TO EVENTS:
While we love and
celebrate children at Sanderling Waldorf School, we
structure these specific events (except for the Family Open Houses) for
guests to learn more about our
school and Waldorf education in a distraction-free setting. We ask that
guests respect the adults-only policy. Visitors
arriving at an event with
a child (including infants and babies) will have to
reschedule their visit for another day. We are happy to schedule
personal informal afternoon tours of the school, by appointment, for
families
who would like to bring their children along.
