WIWS Mission Statement

Whidbey Island Waldorf School is committed to supporting the evolution of human consciousness through the education of its students. Guided by love for each student and inspired by spiritual striving, WIWS teachers lead students through an educational journey that honors each stage of child development, fostering a life-long love of learning. Thus nurtured, enlivened and empowered, students build a foundation that supports their ultimate emergence as free and responsive adults.

The work of Whidbey Island Waldorf School arises from the teachings of Rudolf Steiner and the foundational principles of Anthroposophy and is part of a world-wide movement of Waldorf education. United by our intentions for individual and social growth, our community of teachers, staff, parents and friends strives to realize relationships of commitment, compassion and collaboration while navigating the turbulent waters of social change.
