Sanderling Waldorf School is the only Waldorf accredited Private School In North County San Diego

At Sanderling Waldorf School, we believe in fostering a lifelong love of learning in each child. We recognize each individual as a unique expression of body, soul and spirit, and we seek to engage the whole child through a developmentally appropriate curriculum that addresses the physical, emotional, and intellectual aspects of a child.

We offer programs for children from 16 months to 8th grade on a beautiful campus in Vista, North San Diego, CA. We welcome all families looking for a rich and hands-on education that builds both academic confidence and the capacities for creativity, resilience, innovative thinking, and social and emotional intelligence.

 
 
 
 
We have 2 boys attending Sanderling Waldorf. We transferred to Sanderling from a public school two years ago. Here are some of the things we like about the school: the emphasis on creativity and a lifelong love of learning, the fact that kids learn two languages (Spanish and German) starting in 1st grade, the emphasis on integrating movement into learning (great for my active boys), the academic program which is deep, rich, and experiential (with few worksheets!) , the music and games classes, the outdoor/nature emphasis, the caring and dedicated teachers, and so much more.
