Michael Mount Waldorf School Contact Details
Waldorf education addresses the child as no other education does. Learning, whether in chemistry, mathematics, history or geography, is imbued with life and so with joy, which is the only true basis for later study. By the time they reach us at the college and university level, these students are grounded broadly and deeply and have a remarkable enthusiasm for learning.
– Arthur Zajonc, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Physics, Amherst College
