Our faculty and staff share the vision that education is transformative, and full of love, curiosity, and kindness. Through our highly-intentional, well-rounded curriculum and meaningful relationships, we strive to imbue students with confidence, perseverance, resiliency, and self-knowledge with which to lead lives of purpose and direction.
About the Outdoor Education Program at SFWHS:
We believe deeply in outdoor education’s ability to transform student engagement and the class social life. San Francisco Waldorf School's Outdoor Education Trip Program brings our classroom curriculum alive through yearly grade-level outdoor adventure camping trips. These trips are integral to our students’ growth and development over their four years of high school. Students learn resilience from encountering appropriate risk and uncertainty in the outdoor classroom.
