Waldorf Schools: Let the Buyer Be Aware

"Private schools of all types abound. Many are religious, a few are secular, some are intended to be intensely academic, some allow free play and the students can do whatever they like. Then there are some like Montessori schools that follow a certain method. And then there are the Waldorf schools, which have a reputation for being not only the most expensive, but also hippyish. They grow crops, they dance and paint, they learn practical skills like building, they shun vaccines, they follow astrology. It's how you'd imagine Silicon Valley elites would alleviate their white liberal guilt by putting their children in touch with holistics and nature and spiritualism and the evils of capitalism and screen time. Turns out that reputation is pretty well deserved; most of the stereotypical things you might hear about Waldorf schools are pretty accurate. Much of what's not so public is far weirder than you could imagine."
