My daughter spent 4 ½ amazing years at Mountain Song Community School where who she is was just as important as her academic skills. The focus on the student as a whole person was such as refreshing experience after our time in the traditional public schools. My husband and I were both public school teachers seeking something better for our children and we were lucky to find Mountain Song for our youngest child. MSCS has shown us that a truly holistic model is not only possible but highly effective.

The Difference
In public education, you frequently hear the term multiple intelligences referring to how children learn and the different approaches you have to take to meet the learning styles of the child. In Waldorf education the rich environment we create directly addresses the concept of multiple intelligences and helps to give to each student the support they need in a rich art infused environment where they can learn and grow to meet their highest potential.
- A Waldorf inspired education– A balance of head, heart and hands; or of thinking, feeling, and doing.
- Arts integrated teaching method incorporating story telling, drawing, painting, modeling, music, and movement into lesson presentations.
- The curriculum reflects developmental rhythms and the child’s changing consciousness through the grades.
- Strong community-family-school partnership in support of the children.
- Multiculturalism incorporated into the social aspects of learning to help young children keep an open mind and gain a deeper understanding of other cultures.
