Overview
Far Horizons Montessori School follows the teaching methods developed by Maria Montessori (1870-1952).
We are also dedicated to maintaining the high academic standards established by the Oregon Department of Education.
At the Eugene Waldorf School, we believe that children deserve an inspired education that allows them to grow up strong, happy and healthy.
Children thrive in our school. Our dedicated and loving teachers provide a solid foundation for lifelong learning by joyfully immersing children in art, music, math, language, movement and play.
We see children's capacities grow here every day intellectually, socially, artistically and spiritually.
This allows each amazingly unique child to work and play with freedom and joy throughout their lives.
