Personal and Professional Development Classes designed for Teachers, Administrators, and Supporters within the Public Waldorf Community

Week One of the Professional/Inner Development offers a combination of theory and practice for educators working out of the Core Principles of Public Waldorf Education.  Designed for all members of the Public Waldorf community, participants can choose from a variety of offerings, including introductory sessions for those new to Public Waldorf education, as well as sessions in child development, anthroposophy, special education, therapeutic education, equity, diversity, and inclusion, leadership, and virtual teaching.  The artistic courses are designed to help develop the teacher’s inner life.  Participants can sign up for the entire week or may select individual courses that meet their professional/inner development needs.

Grade/Level Cohorts EC through 8th-Grade and Student Support: Picture of the Grade/Level, Math, Literacy, Science, & the Arts

Week two is designed for teachers in schools working out of the core principles of Public Waldorf Education, and the schedule reflects the professional development we believe will be most supportive in preparation for entering the classroom. The instructors have all been involved with schools working out of these principles and look forward to forming cohorts specific to each grade/area in the morning course. The courses in math, literacy and the arts will form as cohorts combining two grades. Please expect to participate in all the courses for your grade/area, as the instructors are working together to build up a complete picture. Our hope is that new friendships will form, new insights and practical skills gained and that participants will leave feeling refreshed and enthusiastic to begin teaching their grade.
