 Once Upon a Time… at Waldorf 

In a land where dreams take flight and magic is found in every story, Waldorf weaves fairy tales into the heart of learning. Here, children discover courage, kindness, and the belief that even the smallest hero can change the world. Like the tales that inspire them, every child deserves their own adventure—a journey shaped by wonder, resilience, and hope. With your generosity, the magic continues for over 40% of our families, ensuring that every child’s story is filled with possibility. Join us, and be a part of the magic every step of the way.
