Welcome to the Ithaca Waldorf School |
|
The Ithaca Waldorf School offers a Waldorf-inspired education for children from birth through sixth grade, and it is expanding to offer a seventh grade in 2010/11 and an eighth grade the year after that. All programs are designed to provide the highest quality academic, emotional, and social preparation for the complexities of today's world. In addition to a full five-day program, we offer a three-day program for home schoolers. Once again, in the summer of 2009, we are also offering a six-week day camp (look below on this page for camp details). We strive to develop free human beings by awakening in our students clarity of thought, warmth of heart, and strength of purpose. The academic, artistic, and practical lessons respect childhood, encourage healthy growth, and engage students in the living world. The work of Rudolf Steiner provides a cohesive philosophy which guides the teachers, shapes the curriculum, and enriches our community.
The calendar has moved... it is now located at the bottom of this page.

Pirates, Woodland Creatures, and World Traveler are the weekly themes for this year’s Summer Camp. The children will follow a morning schedule that includes gathering and story times, and crafting. In the afternoons, children will be going swimming and/or taking field trips to area waterfalls, parks, berry picking farms, or playgrounds.
Each week culminates in a thematic activity such as a treasure hunt, puppet show, or visit from an international guest. Children ages 6-12 are welcome (siblings younger than 6 may also be permitted to attend). Camp begins July 6th and ends August 14th. You may sign up for one week or more. The cost is $175 per week. If you are interested in learning more about our camp or receiving registration materials, please call Theresa at 273-5184 or use the Contact Us form.
Camp will take place at the Ithaca Waldorf School, located at 399 Turkey Hill Road. After/before care may be available, please inquire.
