Our podcast is back! This season, DWS School Director Kelly Molinet and Educational Director Charlie Orphanides launch a new series exploring the increasing relevance of Waldorf education within broader educational trends and research from around the world. This series begins by asking: what’s up with individualized screens in education? This question is prompted by a recent Washington Post article penned by a pair of university professors and entitled, “What Elementary Schools Are Slowly Learning About Screens: Technology Came to ‘Optimize’ Education. Young Children Pay a Heavy Price.” Using this article as a jumping off point, Kelly and Charlie cover a wide array of topics, including how Waldorf education builds the human capacity to learn and thrive in an ever-changing world. Listen to the whole conversation in Spotify or wherever you like to podcast.

What happens when curiosity meets a little wire, some magnets, and a couple cups? This is a lesson in our 8th grade physics block!

Our students explored the fascinating forces of electricity and magnetism by first constructing microphones and then transforming them into headphones! They don’t just study the principles in theory, they get to bring them to life. Through hands-on experiments, they are able to observe firsthand, developing a deeper understanding of the science around us every day! It’s a lesson that goes well beyond memorization as they discover why and how things work in the world.

If you’re curious to learn more about our Waldorf middle school curriculum, join us for our upcoming Open House on 10/22 from 8:45-10:45 am! Comment “Open House” for more info and to RSVP

What makes The Denver Waldorf high school education different from other private or public high schools in Denver? It looks like learning that happens in more places, in more ways, and with deep purpose.

Our students study abroad through our global exchange program. They take on real-world junior year practicums. They dive deep into a passion through their senior project. They experience academics through block teaching, challenge themselves with all honors-level coursework, continue to develop their creative capacities through integrated arts, and apply their learning through outdoor expeditions. We ask students to dig deep, work hard, and collaborate with each other.

We’re proud of our students’ strong academic achievements (our Class of 2026 alone earned an average of about $430,000 per student in merit scholarships for college!!), but even prouder of the people they become. We believe that a meaningful education goes beyond academic preparation. As educators, we strive to inspire, challenge, and awaken students to the world around them and to their life’s purpose, well beyond college.

Come see what we’re all about - join us for our upcoming Open House on 10/22 from 8:45-10:45 am! Comment “Open House” for more info and to RSVP.

Sometimes the love of the game brings you an undefeated regular season to show for it🌟! From missed serves…to the perfect hits…to putting your whole self on the court and never giving up - this is the joy of sport.

We will be cheering our middle school girls on every step of the way 👏.

Last Friday, our school came together to celebrate Michaelmas. Michaelmas is a traditional Waldorf festival that reminds us to find our own strength and courage to overcome fear in our lives. This year, we celebrated with a school-wide pageant to embrace the underlying meaning of this festival. Our students and staff came together to act out a story of light overcoming darkness, with acts of service bringing to life the spirit of Michaelmas. Through service to others and service to land, our pageant ended with each class sharing the virtues they learned - to be a reminder that within each of us, the light may thrive.

We will move forward in the weeks ahead sharing our light and goodness as we continue our works of service within our community and carrying forward the spirit of Michaelmas!

Shabbat in our 3rd grade sukkah! Together, our students built a beautiful sukkah and celebrated Sukkot, learning about the ancient tradition of gathering, sharing, welcoming others, and giving thanks for the harvest.
In each elementary grade, a literary theme exists to serve as a starting point for many language arts lessons. For the 3rd grade, stories of the ancient Hebrew people bring their learning to life through story, music, tradition, and experience. This past week, our study of Sukkot connected beautifully with our study of shelters and homes as we explore what we build, what we need, and what truly makes a place feel like home.

A sukkah is intentionally simple and impermanent. It reminds us that home is not only made by strong walls, but by the people gathered within them. A place to share food, welcome others, look up at the sky, and celebrate together.

Through experiences like these, learning comes alive - rooted in curiosity, global consciousness, and respect for the many traditions that shape our unique human stories.

Festival time is always an abundant time in our Waldorf kindergartens! This week, each of our kindergarten classes will celebrate the season with their families, classmates, and teachers during our annual harvest festival.

Over the weeks prior, they worked diligently to craft harvest crowns, bake bread, churn butter, and bake apple crisp. On the morning of their harvest festival, they press apple cider and share in good food, good company, and rich tradition- nourishing both our community spirit and our sense of the seasonal rhythms🍁. It’s more than just a celebration, it’s deep connection to one another and the world we share!

If you’re curious to learn more about our early childhood program, join us for our upcoming Open House on 10/22 from 8:45-10:45 am! Comment “Open House” for more info and to RSVP

This is why we do an all high school camping trip in the first month of school. It’s a wonderful way to set our intentions as a community - to give back to the natural world, to forge strong friendships across all of our grades, to make space for the quiet (and the music!) - and build that solid foundation for the growth ahead. Our 3 days spent at Cherry Creek State Park were filled with exploration, service work, archery, fishing, plenty of games, music, laughter, and togetherness! These simple days in the wild remind us of the power of slowing down, looking up, and looking within.
