Sagarin’s discussion of charters is also good. He gives light treatment to the greater socioeconomic diversity in public schools & Waldorf education’s social mission; to the relationship of public school teachers to anthroposophic educational methodology (equally nuanced at private ones too!); and to the issue of what exactly “state” control of education means and why it scares Waldorf schools. Good questions!

“The goals [of a Waldorf education] can be met in a wide variety of settings, with an infinitely wide possibility of curricula, through the myriad possibilities of human personality.”
This guy (though I quote him quoting Nancy Parsons Whittaker here) is articulating something about my life I didn’t quite know how to articulate myself. Ceci n’est pas une pipe!

“As Waldorf education became more established in the United States, its promise as a model for education generally was compromised, in part, by its objectification. By coming to reside, or to be seen to reside, in specific schools only, it forsook its status as a way to discuss how teachers teach and children learn, and became much more than that: an exclusive culture, ideology, and institution.”
