Into the World

A survey of over 1,000 Waldorf high school graduates from 1990 through 2017 provides ample data about the college accomplishments, degrees earned, and careers pursued by those who graduates in this 25 year period. Data is compared to identical or similar data with the National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS). In addition, individual interviews with graduates and their Waldorf teachers provides a lush narrative about the paths followed by those with a Waldorf education, both during college and after college. Analysis of most valuable and most challenging aspects of having graduated as a "Waldorfian" dispels many mis-informational opinions of Waldorf education and gives real-time survey responses from those who live to prove the effectiveness of their Waldorf education: some from pre-K through 12; some from high school years only. This book provides much needed information to those evaluating education reform, private vs. public education, parents making decisions about their own children, and those pondering a teaching career.
