Gaia shown her light on this scrap of earth. A place where all is possible & nothing expected of our children. Staff, Teachers & parents each a moving, loving surrogate mother to us all. No stresses or pressures for testing & labeling our children made by bourgeois capitalists. Come enjoy our gardens. Each other.
Top notch program. Really protects the childhood. Many amazing extra programs (spanish, movement, handwork). They are doing a great job with all of the budget problems.
SunRidge Charter School gets my vote not because it is my daughters' school, but because of the wonderful community that nurtures it to be the beautiful entity that it is.
SunRidge School is dedicated to each child; who they are as human beings, with gifts and potentials to be cultivated and nurtured. The community of faculty, staff, students and parents give deeply of themselves to create an education that honors the human spirit, the environment, and the world.
I am completely thrilled with Sunridge and it's programs. Students are held in an environment of caring that is developmentally appropriate. It is a wonderful place.
This school evolved from a private Waldorf based school which went bankrupt, has struggled to reinvent itself as a charter school. Now calling itself waldorf-insirpered, it has managed to continue on, but make no mistake, when nobodiey's looking it reverts to the old standard waldorf curiculum. It provides good solid teaching in the social subjects, english etc., but the science is and math is sorely lacking. when my kids took the SSAt tests, the shortcomings became evident. They hadn't been taught much of what was tested ...review the state scores carefully before sending your kids here...
