  • Letter to the Community FALL 2019
    2018-2019 • Annual Report Letter to the Community FALL 2019 According to Rudolf Steiner, the three components of a Waldorf education are a need for imagination, a sense of truth, and a feeling of responsibility. For 54 years, Detroit Waldorf School has nurtured these pillars of learning in thousands of students, who have entered society as creative, voracious, and responsible citizens of the world. It is our community that sustains DWS. Our parents, grandparents, alumni, teachers, and staff breathe life into our school day after day. We endured periods of uncertainty, and now we are navigating a period of unprecedented growth and demand. This next year is critical for our school to determine how we might increase our capacity and open our doors to more children. It is our challenge to ride this wave of interest in Waldorf education while also addressing the need for more Waldorf educators. In order to thrive, DWS requires more teachers and these teachers deserve fair compensation. DWS has endured because we have remained true to our mission and committed to the children who pass through our gate. As we celebrate 100 years of Waldorf education, I invite you to join me in committing anew to supporting our wonderful community. The fellowship and friendship Detroit Waldorf School has provided my family—and families like yours—is invaluable. Please consider giving in honor of all we have accomplished in the past five decades, and all we will achieve in the future. Sincerely, Dante King, PRESIDENT, BOARD OF TRUSTEES Our Students DWS ended the 2018-19 academic year with 254 enrolled students.
