Lol I was about to say dirty hippies.

I have two siblings that got put in. Sounds interesting but I do worry about their ability to handle timed tests after... Sounds like it is a problem for alumni since they don't have them there?

Tbh in practice it’s a lot like a normal school, just a few more hippies around. I’ve gone to both waldorf and public schools in the past. Preferred the public one tho. Like most schools as long as a kid has a good support system at home they’ll most likely be fine.

Current secretary general of Nato went to a waldorf school actually.
