Spring Garden is an incredible place - the education here is based on the development of the students and not on an imposed curriculum. The focus on interdisciplinary learning, experience-based projects, and long-term development of relationships is incredible. There is nothing like it in the Akron area.

A Waldorf education is a gift to your children and to your whole family.

In a word, terrible. One or two good teachers and certainly an administration without class. Don't let this s...
