Thank you for considering The Waldorf School of Philadelphia for your child's education.

As a parent you are faced with a series of vitally important choices and decisions for your child. Of these, the choice of your child's school has perhaps the most far-reaching consequences. I look forward to sharing this process with you, and introducing you to Waldorf education and to our school.

The first step is to contact the Admissions Office for more information, either by e-mail, or by calling the school at 215-248-1662. I will be happy to answer your questions and forward you an information packet. You are strongly encouraged to visit the school, either at one of our regularly scheduled Open Houses and Observation Mornings, or by arranging an individual tour. Use this visit as an opportunity to ask questions, view the work of our students, and observe the children at work and at play.

The next step is to submit an application form. Download pdf applications for either early childhood and early childhood admissions process or grades 1-8.and grades admissions process. A non-refundable application fee of $50 is due when the application is submitted. Upon receiving your child's application, I will set up an interview for parents and child with the class teacher, and for children applying for 2nd-8th grade we will also schedule a class visit for your child. Tuition assistance is available for children entering their last year of Kindergarten, and for children in the grades.

Also, download the Teacher Reference Form and Request For Records Form.
 
Please feel free to contact me for more information. I look forward to hearing from you.
