This sweet scene is from White Rose kindergarten’s #teddybearteaparty. Ms. AnnMarie is passing out mini heart-shaped cakes the children helped bake. #sierrawaldorfschool #happyvalentinesday

Seventh graders have been studying the #renaissance during their recent history block. Each student chose an artist, wrote a biography about them and painted one of their paintings. #sierrawaldorfschool #waldorfeducation

Breakfast is (almost) served at Red Rose kindergarten Their outdoor classroom/kitchen includes a wood-burning stove made in the mid-1800s. #SierraWaldorf #OutdoorClassroom #OutdoorKitchen #WaldorfEducation #BonAppetit

#babushka stopped by our three #kindergarten classes this morning to ask if the children had seen the #childoflight and to give them each a star-shaped cookie

SWS lends a hand to our greater community: The first photo shows just a portion of the wrapped gifts SWS students gave to families in need of some Christmas cheer, while the second photo is from last month’s Day of Gratitude in which seventh graders collected 27 bags of food along with children’s books for those in need. #adoptafamily #dayofgratitude #happyholidays

Our annual Elves Faire has gone online this year (link in bio). You can win these class-decorated live Christmas trees along with handmade Xmas stockings, jewelry, gift cards and SWS merch. Thanks for your support!

Look who showed up on campus today. #sierrawaldorfschool #saintnicholasday

We are grateful for our enthusiastic parents, inspired faculty and dedicated administrative team. Last but certainly not least, we give thanks for all of our incredible students and alumni. Here’s some more artwork (watercolor and ink) from our talented eighth graders. #sierrawaldorfschool #happythanksgiving

SWS grad Jonathan Weldon (Class of 1996) and his brother Todd (Class of 1997) served in the #marines during the early-to-mid 2000s (they were each deployed to Iraq twice). The brothers made the SWS garden gate as a tribute to their mother, Judith, a longtime teacher at the school. Their father @weldon_steve0 is a #vietnamwar veteran who also taught at SWS. Jonathan’s son and Todd’s sons now attend SWS three decades after their dads. #waldorfalumwednesday #veteransday

SWS teachers and parents kept the #halloween magic alive this year with festive decorations, pumpkin carvings, seasonal games, outdoor puppet shows, and treat bags containing chocolate coins and amethysts. #sierrawaldorfschool #spiderweb #halloween2020

As you can see, eighth graders are perfecting their skeleton-drawing skills as they wrap-up their anatomy studies this week just in time for Halloween. #sierrawaldorfschool #anatomy #happyhalloween

Due to COVID restrictions, SWS will not host a public Halloween festival this year. Students will, however, have the opportunity to celebrate this week with their teacher and classmates.
