I went to this school from 1st-8th grade. I switched from there to go to a public high school. Let me tell you why. When I reached the 7th grade I started feeling like I was falling behind the public schoolers academically. So I took some test and yes, in fact I was behind. The teachers do not teach math very well, they never stress how important it is to do your homework. They give you NO preparation for college or even high school. Once I switched it was hard to adapt because I didn't have the work ethics, study habits, or ideas that homework needed to be done. Other Facts: There is not enough funding for a tech department meaning no technical oriented classes such as design. There is no real auditorium. The basketball court is about 1/4th the size it should be. The dress code is way to strict. You don't get the feel that teachers are there when you need them. It is impossible to fail a class. (People need to know that there can be failures in life!) I honestly find the public school pressure atmosphere more successful. I will feel sorry for the students enrolled at LCWS and LCWHS when they go on to college. They will not have the skills to have a successful college career.
Finally an education that balances left and right-brained development! In this changing economy all schools could take a note from Waldorf education. My children will be prepared to lead the American workforce because of their trained creative forces, empathy and strong will.
This school does not provide a very good education, it teaches very pointless 'skills' like knitting, woodworking, eurythmy and other meaningless things. The faculty is many times inexperienced and many do not know how to relate to students and are often very insensitive. There are some good teachers however and some of the teaching is satisfactory but overall it is a poor school.
I went here for High School, and it was the most amazing experience of my life. If anyone wants to her about it, the good and the bad, feel free to contact me! tanyalouisebashaw@gmail.com
