Palisades Fire Update:

Our Pacific Palisades campus was tragically lost in the Palisades fires. We have already resumed operations at our Santa Monica campus and will be opening for tours in Santa Monica on January 28th.

We are still accepting applications for new children for Fall 2025 in Preschool, Kindergarten, and Grades 1 - 3 at our Santa Monica Campus. Grades 4 - 8 are being housed at a nearby temporary location but will have a permanent site before next fall.

Please reach out to Brenna Johnston-Kosher, Admissions Coordinator, at admissions@wswaldorf.org for more information.

The Westside Waldorf School is passionate about getting to know potential families and giving you the best possible application and enrollment experience. We pride ourselves on the care and attention we show each family that comes through our doors.

My name is Brenna Johnston-Kosher, and I am your guide to navigating the application process here at the Westside Waldorf School. I love speaking and meeting with interested parents who want to learn more about our school and what makes Waldorf education so exceptional. 

To begin your journey, please fill out an Inquiry Form or Schedule a Tour so I can provide the best information on the program you are most interested in.

I look forward to introducing you to our engaged and dynamic community and sharing the richness of Waldorf education with you!

Applications are being accepted now for the 2025 - 2026 school year! Visit our Apply page for more information.

"The heart of the Waldorf method is that education is an art — it must speak to the child's experience. To educate the whole child, his heart and his will must be reached, as well as the mind."

— Rudolf Steiner
