The beauty of a Waldorf education in a nutshell. During my eight years at the Lake Champlain Waldorf School I got to be a number of characters in our class plays ranging from Simpleton and his Golden Goose in 1st grade, to Shakespeare’s King Lear in 8th grade. Here is a 2002 shot of me as a pirate in our 6th grade production of Sir Arthur Sullivan’s Pirates of Penzance (with a personal touch to the script only the likes of Mr. Diehl-Noble could put on it). In many ways this epitomizes much of what is so wonderful about the Lake Champlain Waldorf School. An athlete and musician by heart, at this school I got to be and experience so much more. Education is about experiencing different expressions of life first hand, and at LCWS that is how you learn and that is why by the time you graduate you have a tremendous understanding of not only the world, but of yourself within that world; who you are and what you love.
