“Meadowlark has been so wonderful for our daughter who has some learning differences. We love the smaller class size and the Waldorf-nature based pedagogy. We love how the natural world is brought into everything the children do and the community that has been created from the school. ”

“For me, Meadowlark stands for the proposition that a nature-based and Waldorf-inspired microschool is not only possible but necessary. As a parent, there is an overwhelming cultural drone of screen screen screen, more and more activities, more and more plastic toys. I feel like these are the roots of achievement anxiety and burnout. Meadowlark emerged as a kind of refuge from that noise. What resonates for me, and what I’ve observed from my experience as a parent, is the tremendous benefit of ironic truths like: less is more; slow is fast; nature is healing. It’s hard to describe how beautiful and precious this mode of being and living is. I’m so grateful.”
