Curriculum Overview
In the Waldorf curriculum subjects are taught in blocks, which last several weeks and rotate throughout the school year. The overarching subjects of the blocks offered are mathematics, language arts, science, history, and the arts. The form of the blocks will look different from grade to grade, aligning with the development of the child.
Traditionally, the curriculum courses range between

TESTIMONIALS
What People Say
Teacher
Parent
Student
“As a professional colleague of Jacquelynn’s over the last several years, it is with earnestness that I comment how her skill set as a teacher is uncanny and unparalleled in many respects. A dedicated artist and teacher herself, Jacquelynn can employ not only technical aspects to all areas of learning, but can also do so with grace, artistry, and understanding for the child’s developmental tendencies. I would give an enthusiastic ‘yes’ to anyone considering her educational services.”
Kevin
Waldorf Class Teacher
“My oldest daughter was a student in Jacquelynn’s first Waldorf class. I still remember the excitement my daughter had when the chalkboard drawing was going to be revealed the next day at school! Jacquelynn’s creativity, sense of humor and love of teaching was present daily in her interactions with her students, meeting the children at every age and developmental marker from first to eighth grade. This year our youngest daughter will be entering the fifth grade. We have home-schooled her using a Waldorf approach for the past few years by finding online resources, books and resources from our local library. We are so excited to have the expertise of Jacquelynn to guide us through the upper grades. This is exactly what we have been looking for to enhance our homeschooling curriculum!”

“Thank you so much for teaching me most everything I know, from math to Main Lesson and the art. I don’t know how you take care of 29 kids and are so nice to all of them. This year, I have learned the most I have every learned thanks to you!
P.S. I will also make sure to recycle!!”
