Great Northern Elementary School

My son is above his grade level And they challenge him, to help him succeed.

My son attended Westgate Christian School for 8 years. The teachers are wonderful, challenging him in areas he excelled, even giving him curriculum for the next grade up in one subject when he worked hard to earn it. The school families get to know each other well with opportunities for carpooling and chaperoning field trips. There are lots of parents and grandparents that volunteer one on one with kids too, so if they are struggling with certain areas, they have the opportunity for help. They are also aware and careful about kids with severe food allergies.

My son is finishing his first year at Palisades. He is in 7th grade, and this has been the best year he's ever had! I encourage anyone with kids, K-10 to attend here. It has rigorous standards, compassionate staff, and great ideals.

Like many parents in the world today, I was met with many options when choosing an educational path for my child. Homeschool? Public School? Private religious school? None of them fit what we wanted for our son, who at the time had just turned 4. That was until I heard about Windsong through a family member. Now I could not imagine my life without Windsong.My son is free to be who he wants to be, while being guided with a gentle hand & encouraging spirit. He is genuinely able to just be a child, discover the world, while building resilient habits and developing relationship cornerstones that will stay with him for the rest of his life. The school is an outdoor school, where children get to play, explore, have a shared meal & take care of one another. Windsong offers a wide range of classes for all ages, including a mixed aged kindergarten with 3-6year olds. It's very clear that the teachers are invested in the well-being of the children they teach.We were baby brand new to Waldorf education and were greeted immediately with open arms. As a parent, there are many, many ways to get involved with the school whether it be baking for the bake sale, helping set up & facilitate multiple events, and even learn new skills you never knew you could. I encourage you to take a tour of the school for yourself. Even if you have no idea what Waldorf is, or how it fits into your home like we did, it may just change the course of your family's life for the better.
