Early Childhood

Sanderling Waldorf School started in 1996 as a home parent-toddler group. In 1997, the group hired a recent Waldorf teacher graduate to teach the first preschool class. The school grew slowly, but steadily over the years. In 1998, a parent-toddler program was added. In 2002, a second Nursery/Kindergarten class was added. Parent study and handwork groups started mid-year and grew. Currently, Sanderling Waldorf's Early-Childhood program offers:

Parent-child classes for three different age groups
Nursery class (3 days/week) for children ages 2 and 3
Two mixed-age (ages 3-6) Nursery/Kindergarten classes

Grade School

In 2000, the first Grades class was started with the children who started the school. This class was continued through 3rd Grade. In 2004, a new 1st Grade class was formed. This class continued through 5th Grade. A new 1st Grade has been added each year since 2004.

The school's eventual goal is to grow to offer Grades 1-8, with the current lead class as the first to graduate from 8th grade.

Current Grades

In the 2010-11 school year, the following grades are offered:

1st Grade
2nd-3rd Grade (combined class)
4th-5th Grade (combined class)
