Berkshire Waldorf High School provides an education for adolescents that seeks truth, develops imagination, nurtures growth, fosters responsibility, and honors inner freedom in an atmosphere of academic excellence, artistic fulfillment, openness, and mutual respect.
Extraordinarily qualified teachers lead students through a rich and varied array of block-scheduled seminars in science, history, literature, and mathematics. These range from thermodynamics to Shakespeare, from statistics to the history of the modern world. In addition to seminar subjects, students complete a college preparatory curriculum in mathematics, English, and a foreign language. Students also receive credits in music, drama, fine and practical arts, eurythmy, and physical education. Students also complete internships, projects, and community service. Students apply to college with Honors transcripts and impressive portfolios of academic and artistic work.
