About The Denver Waldorf Middle School
Founded in 1974, The Denver Waldorf Middle School serves 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students.
Through science, math, language arts, visual and sculptural arts, gym, Spanish, and more, the students begin to build the bridge between childhood and adulthood, preparing them for high school and beyond. The content and quantity of subjects expand significantly to meet the needs of the preadolescent. Subjects are introduced with the goal of helping the student maintain a healthy interest in the world. The curriculum encourages preadolescents to direct their gaze enthusiastically and sympathetically out into the world and thereby come to a deeper understanding of self.
“I look out into the world…”
As the students enter adolescence and develop a critical eye, the curriculum works to draw them out of themselves to see the world in full clarity.
“I look into the soul…”
And as they look out, they also peer within, finding themselves reflected in the world around them, helping to grow into their awakening identities.
At this time, we are offering in-person tours and virtual shadow days. To learn more about either our middle school or the admissions process please reach out to Admissions Manager Brooke Camfield at admissions@denverwaldorf.org.
