The Parents' Journey at a Waldorf School
We know that our children will change dramatically during their time at a Waldorf School.
They will go from being young children to being young adults. What we all notice is that at certain grades these changes are more dramatic (and problematic) than at other times. The Waldorf program is designed to support children during these significant changes. But what about parents. Where do we find the support we need?
Jack Petrash, is the founder and director of the Nova Institute. He is an educator with over thirty years of classroom experience and a teacher of teachers.
