High School

Perin Ellsworth-Heller"Young people, especially those in High School, need to be inspired. Additionally, we need to feel safe and secure enough to take that inspiration and turn it into something real, lasting, and meaningful. Without an inspired learning environment, we can't find our place in the world or be content with ourselves. As a student at Monadnock Waldorf High School I have received knowledge and skills in plenty and along with these, the inspiration to go further with them."
- Perin Ellsworth-Heller

As they enter High School age, young people begin to take charge of themselves and their destinies. We foster these new capacities by engaging our students’ intellects, encouraging the capacity for objective judgment, and giving students the opportunity to constructively explore the questions that occupy young adults: “Who am I?” and “How can I make a difference?”
Our High School program provides students with the tools they need to navigate the world with clarity of purpose and creative thinking. Our approach is rooted in academic excellence, sensitivity to the developmental needs of students, a focus on social relationships and human awareness, and incorporation of the arts as a path toward both intellectual understanding and self-reflection.

One difference

“By the time they reach us at the college and university level, these students are grounded broadly and deeply and have a remarkable enthusiasm for learning. Such students possess the eye of the discoverer, and the compassionate heart of the reformer which, when joined to a task, can change the planet.”  Arthur Zajonc, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Physics, Amherst College
