Who will thrive in the coming years?

Creative problem solvers and collaborative individuals.

People who can convey their ideas confidently and engage others, and individuals that are comfortable with experiments to find better and innovative approaches will thrive in the coming years. As will people who know who they are so deeply they naturally hold confidence and others are drawn to them. These qualities come from a balanced education. 

​

At Eastside Community School our Waldorf inspired education cultivates natural curiosity, a life long love of learning, and gives each individual child space and guidance to fully grow into themselves. Eastside Community School is not just an education for today; it's for a lifetime.

We are different!

Your child is not standardized.

​We respond to the child in front of us, every day. Many schools take a standardized approach to education, with larger class sizes and similar approaches used across grades and subjects. ​These schools work well for many families, but not every child thrives in a one-size-fits-all environment. Some crave more opportunities for creative expression, greater flexibility in how they learn, or are inspired in different ways. Research on educational best practices- including the importance of a phone-free environment- continues to highlight and affirm the value of approaches we already use. Take a closer look at our programs and curriculum. Visit our campus. Experience a school that does things a little differently.

Testimonials

Shiva Sabet-Kazilas, EC and Grades Parent

"What has surprised and delighted us the most is the sense of community. The other families have become more than just school connections--they've become chosen family. The level of support, care, and shared values among the parents is rare and beautiful. If you're looking for a school where your child can truly thrive--emotionally, socially, and intellectually--while being part of a heart-centered, thoughtful community, Eastside Community School is it. We couldn't be happier."

"Children must be taught how to think, not what to think."
