Applying to Emerson Waldorf School
We are so pleased you have found Emerson Waldorf School and look forward to beginning our relationship with your family!
How to Apply:
Attend A Window into Waldorf Tour
After your tour, complete an online application (includes student photo, student records, references, etc.)
Once the application is complete, we will schedule visits, meetings, and assessments.
Applications for the 2026-2027 & 2027-2028 school years are now open!
What to Expect:
Our process is carefully designed to be both comfortable and comprehensive. We work to capture a complete picture of each child, listen intently to parents, and consider the needs of students, families, and the school. After reviewing an application, the next steps include:
Early Childhood – An afternoon “playdate” where a small group of children and parents experience the beauty and tranquility of our classrooms and outdoor areas. Free and structured play offers the opportunity for observation and identifying needs.
Grades – A two-day visit where your child gets to experience daily learning, life, and rhythms of a grades class, complete with academics, art, and outdoor activities.
High School – A virtual one-on-one plus a half-day in-person visit allows students and teachers to begin bonding while sharing an overview of the academic, artistic, and social dynamics of learning at one of the few Waldorf high schools in the country.
