Message from Our Leadership
Welcome to Highland Hall Waldorf School. Founded in 1955, our school has been serving the youth of Southern California for over 60 years. It is our joy and privilege to serve as the leadership team for the school and to support its educational mission.
Waldorf schools have been educating students worldwide for nearly 100 years, and Highland Hall is the oldest Waldorf school in the western United States. As with all great schools we provide a complete program of academic and artistic courses, developing both creative and critical thinking in the students we serve. But we also recognize that academics alone are not enough. Those skills must be coupled with moral discernment and the will to put those intellectual and heartfelt insights to work in the world.
We invite you to learn more about Highland Hall and the genius of Waldorf education. Peruse the information on our web site, visit our beautiful 11 acre campus, and find out how your family too can be part of an educational program committed to “receiving the children with reverence, educating them with love and sending them forth in freedom*.”
