Waldorf
Waldorf (Steiner) Education is often referred to as schooling that educates “Towards Freedom” and that gives a child “Roots and Wings”.
According to a recent study of Waldorf graduates [source: AWSNA]:
- 94% attended college or university
- 47% chose humanities or arts as a major
- 42% chose sciences or math as a major
- 89% are highly satisfied in choice of occupation
- 91% are active in lifelong education
- 92% placed a high value on critical thinking
- 90% highly values tolerance of other viewpoints
The New York Times recently (Oct. 22, 2011) published an article on how the movement, arts, literature and project-based,non-technology oriented, Waldorf methods have attracted Silicon Valley parents to enroll their children.
NBC Nightly News also covered the story.
