Maple Village Waldorf School vs. Long Beach Montessori School

Maple Village Waldorf School aims to create a compassionate and welcoming environment rooted in the traditions and the philosophy of Waldorf education.

Maple Village Waldorf School has its home in one of the most diverse cities in the United States. We welcome the wide array of cultures, races, economic backgrounds, cognitive variations, religious affiliations, abilities, gender identities, and sexual orientations represented in the body of our faculty, staff, parent/guardians and students. We value this multiplicity and consistently work to ensure that the population of our school reflects that of our community, and we strive to cultivate an multicultural curriculum that reflects and meets our students with respect, relevance, cultural awareness and inclusion.
