"Waldorf education is a life-changing force that can shape and change students to be the best possible version of themselves."~ Meghan Gomez, AWS teacher
Choosing a school is one of the most important decisions a family makes in shaping a child’s life. We are here to assist you in any way we can, from individualized guided tours and Q&A sessions to our accessible tuition model.

We believe the proof of any education is found not only in the classroom itself but in the human beings it produces. Our graduates:
Are sought-after honor students who exceed state standards.
Are prepared for a changing world with life skills including self-discipline, mastery of independent and critical thinking, creativity, and reverence and wonder for the world's beauty.
Love learning for its own sake, not just to do well on a test.
Have been allowed to grow into their strengths at their own pace.
We highly recommend a visit to see our school in full swing. We encourage you to take a tour of AWS.

"I believe that Waldorf education possesses unique educational features that have considerable potential for improving ... education in America. Waldorf schools provide a program that not only fosters conventional forms of academic achievement but also puts a premium on the development of imagination and the refinement of the sensibilities."
– Elliot Eisner, Ph.D., Professor of Education and Art, Stanford University; Past President, American Educational Research Association; Author, Curriculum and Cognition: Educating Artistic Vision
At Aurora Waldorf School, there is a belief that we are creative individuals and life is meant to be enjoyed. AWS is creating individuals that will survive and thrive because of their ability to think creatively.~ Mary Poindexter McLaughlin, alumni parent and former administrator
