This school has been the worst experience for both our children. If you are looking for expensive…read moreknitting lessons, then this is the school for your child. The standard of education is very poor. Our children were not allowed to read until 2nd grade. This alone makes it hard for your child to get into any other school if you try to leave this school. I do not recommend this school to anyone.It's been BEYOND PATHETIC for our family.

My daughter is in her second year at the Richmond Waldorf School. We have had nothing but extremely…read morepositive experiences with the school and the school community. What drew me to RWS was their philosophy around educating the whole child. The skills that children learn in a Waldorf program are designed to build a healthy, educated whole individual. You can teach a child very specific skills at any school. Waldorf is helping to develop and nurture children's natural curiosity which is something that can't be found in a textbook. A curious child that is nurtured becomes a life long learner. Not everyone is familiar with the Waldorf education and it's fundamentals.

The staff has a system in place to keep track of the kids and make sure they get to their final destination safely whether that is by bus or parent pick up. I have to be honest here being a first time elementary school parent I had a ton of anxiety about this. Although I have enjoyed my interactions with the staff I wish the staff at MES was more diverse.

When my daughter came back home several weeks into her freshman year, she said, "I'm so grateful I went to Veritas. I know how to think and am prepared for college." There is an emphasis on critical thinking, rhetoric, and Latin. We have made a lot of great friends from the parent community.

There is very little social issues/conflicts at Orchard House, and faculty still makes a point to discuss social issues and make it known that the school is a safe place, and a sisterhood.
