“We have created the educational institution of riverwood community school to teach children utilizing the methods of waldorf education as developed by rudolf steiner.”

“Upper columbia association on behalf of waldorf education, dba riverwood community school, served families in stevens county in several unique ways. We are the only school between nelson, b.c. And spokane, washington that uses the waldorf education model as a pedagogical foundation for our teaching methods and curriculum. Our early childhood program, which offered a mixed-ages kindergarten class for children ages 4 to 6, had 20 students enrolled part or full-time. In the spring, we expanded to offer preschool for children ages 2 - 3. Our first class had four students. To help working parents, we offered aftercare, so the children could stay at school longer. All of the snacks and meals that we served throughout the day were wholesome and healthy, and when possible - organic, non-gmo and locally sourced. Our grades program had twelve students and served first through fifth grade children. We offered a full-time program and part-time enrichment classes for home schooled students. Our specialty classes, which are integrated with and supported by our rigorous academic curriculum, included: spanish, painting, beeswax modeling, form drawing, singing, wooden flute and handwork (knitting, crocheting, sewing, embroidery). For their weekly community service class, students visited and played games with the residents of the nearby buena vista retirement home. We also hosted our first guest lecture series, which was open to the public. The two-lecture series, entitled brain-wise learning, was well- attended by parents and the community.”
