About Lilac Children's Garden

Our initiative was begun twelve years ago by a small group of parents interested in giving their homeschooled children a meaningful Waldorf-inspired experience.

These parents familiarized themselves with Waldorf curriculum, formally and informally, and became our first teachers. Through the years, we have attracted parents to join Lilac Children's Garden leadership. Many have come with a range of teaching experience, in Waldorf education or other methods, and some with no education experience at all.

Our teachers demonstrate a strong respect for and love of children, along with a commitment to their facilitative role in the families' growth and learning. We hope to do this through a progressively deepening understanding of Rudolf Steiner's enlightened Waldorf curriculum.
