It's a simple equation. If you want children that are happy, healthy, have a zest for life and engage wholeheartedly with the world around them then Waldorf is your answer.

The Waldorf School of a Peninsula has a hit or miss experience though middle school. If the class teacher is good it is wonderful. In high school the teachers are generally quite good but there is no school spirit. the sports program in general is in disarray. There is very little support for students with disabilities and some of the teacher are unwilling to work with and help students who learn differently. Also the social situation in the high school is toxic and the faculty are completely oblivious.
