Discover what makes Seattle Waldorf School special

Belonging

Our students are known and celebrated for who they are. They receive the support they need to grow and graduate knowing they can thrive on any path they choose.

Independence

Students are challenged to own their education and be ever curious lifelong learners, thinking deeply and reflecting on their personal and academic journeys.

Arts

All students participate in the study and practice of art and theater, expanding their capacities for self-expression, empathy, and finding beauty in the world and humanity.

Experiential Education

Whether on a week-long trip exploring the San Juan Islands, visiting the State Capital, or volunteering to restore local Native American tribal land, hands-on experiences allow students to enrich, expand, and practice what they’re learning in the classroom.

Connect with Us

“Our child is at SWS because the program’s focus is on supporting the healthy development of the whole child – emotionally, physically and intellectually. It’s not just about skill acquisition. It’s not just a layer of “social and emotional” curriculum added on the side.”

–KINDERGARTEN PARENT

I like to think I can do anything.

–ALUMNI STUDENT

“I am so impressed by the way students are able to support each other rather than compete. My daughter was climbing a rope, and there was her friend down below saying “look at what she can do.”

–GRADE 1 PARENT

“We have consistently had the best employees with Waldorf backgrounds. The consistent, open and thoughtful nature is a quality we have come to associate with the school’s students and teachers alike. Waldorf is a huge asset to our community and our lives.”
