My son is in the early childhood program, and so far, I am loving Philly Waldorf. More importantly, I love to see that my son is extremely excited to go to school. Also, the teachers and administrators are wonderful, and day by day, I see the growth that my son is experiencing. I can't wait to see where this takes him.

Waldorf curriculum is beautiful and there are some extremely talented teachers at WSP. However, there are huge governance challenges with this school. The board is largely ineffective.
