Wonderful school with attentive, involved and empathetic teachers. Since he has started Waldorf our son is almost a different child, he is so happy. He is excited to learn, and his self esteem is growing. He tells us that he is actually sad that the weekend is coming.

My experience with this school has been terribly bad! Academic standards are way below the state of Georgia standards of Education while the school is not even familiarized with those…. My second grade child hasn’t yet learn how to read/write while we are almost finishing the academic year.
