River Song Waldorf School – Fort Collins, Colorado

EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION. We should educate children so that all their concepts are capable of growth: that their concepts and will impulses are really alive. This is not easy. But an artistic education succeeds in doing it – Rudolf Steiner

Are Waldorf schools religious?

In the sense of subscribing to the beliefs of a particular religious denomination or sect, no. Waldorf schools, however, tend to be spiritually oriented and are based out of a generally Christian perspective. The historic festivals of Christianity, and of other major religions as well, are observed in the class rooms and in school assemblies. Classes in religious doctrine are not part of the Waldorf curriculum, and children of all religious backgrounds attend Waldorf schools. Spiritual guidance is aimed at awakening the child’s natural reverence for the wonder and beauty of life.
