Hear from our graduates

Green Meadow alumni are successful in all walks of life, and many return for their own children to attend.

The breadth of curriculum I’d been exposed to gave me a sense of curiosity and willingness to take risks in my learning that many of my peers lacked.

In Waldorf Education, we were guided to solve problems creatively vs. memorizing facts. It is this curiosity, creativity, and confidence that allows Waldorf students to excel.

I value so much about my Waldorf Education, it’s difficult to choose one thing! The enduring friendships, how art was woven through every subject, the care given by the teachers.
