School Notes
Our Mission
At Walden School, we nurture a child's natural wonder and
personal dignity. We provide a personalized, developmentally
appropriate program that encourages responsibility, initiative,
child-led inquiry, ethical behavior, and excellence. We promote
positive conflict-resolution skills, understanding and creativity
in problem-solving. Children learn academic skills and concepts
through experience and Socratic discussion, as well as through
direct instruction and practice. We teach children to value and
respect diversity. We strive, therefore, to lay the foundation for
wisdom, to encourage the spirit of Renaissance learning, and to
teach that we all have stewardship for the world in which we
live.
