What changes are needed in Waldorf high schools today? • First, the Project has invited leading teachers and international experts in Waldorf educa- tion to take part in three-day colloquia around the country on the Waldorf high school curriculum, specifically on the teaching of chemistry, history, mathematics, and move- ment (eurythmy and spacial dynamics), environmental sciences, computer science, and English. Further colloquia are planned in literature and the arts. Proceedings from these colloquia are being published so as to benefit the broadest possible range of Waldorf high school teachers. • Some 30 veteran teachers from across North America have undertaken original research in topics related to Waldorf high school issues and the needs of teenagers today. • The Project sponsored a large-scale research conference in Andover Massachusetts, October 18-22, 2001, on the theme of adolescent development and the Waldorf high school program. • The Committee planned the North American Waldorf Teachers Conference in Kimberton, Pennsylvania June 2002 on the theme “Ascending the Developmental Staircase” covering kindergarten through high school. Over four hundred teachers attended. A publication of the lectures has been printed. 7 WHSRP Mission Statement Formed in August 1998, the Waldorf High School Research Project is charged with strengthen- ing the Waldorf high school movement by creating an updated picture of adolescents today and stimu- lating curriculum development within the Waldorf high schools. As a designated committee of the Association of Waldorf Schools of North America (AWSNA), the Planning Group of this project is specifically responsible for • identifying and articulating changes in the needs of North American teenagers • formulating research questions concerning adolescence; commissioning qualified educa- tors and other professionals to undertake research into these questions • sponsoring subject colloquia as well as conferences on adolescent development and needs for those working in Waldorf high schools • preparing North American conferences for those working in Waldorf high schools – to share and deepen research; to stimulate dialogue; to activate meaningful change for youth in the twenty-first century • developing publications and other media resources to assist those working in Waldorf high schools • stimulating Waldorf high school educators to examine and strengthen their programs • seeking funds to support the commissioned research, colloquia, publications, confer- ences, and follow-up initiatives in the Waldorf high schools in coordination with AWSNA Development in line with the overall AWSNA priorities. 8 Colloquium on English High Mowing School, Wilton, New Hampshire 10 - 13 October 2003 Schedule ____________________________________________ FRIDAY 10 OCTOBER 6:00 P.M.

    Anthroposophical Society in the Western Cape, Sophia House – 18 Firfield Rd, Plumstead 021 7619600 – [email protected] Quarterly Issue – Spring 2013 SPECIAL EDITION The Laying of the EDITORIAL Foundation Stone On Friday 20th September a number of members gathered to commemorate the laying of the Foundation Stone for the first Goetheanum in 1913. Michelle Kaplan gave us indications given by Rudolf Steiner and some of the first Eurythmists with regard to the Halleluiah and at 5.30pm we joined many an- throposophists around the world in the Halleluiah. Wilfried Bohm then spoke about the ceremony that surrounded the laying of this ‘stone’. “The Foundation stone is composed of a double pentagonal dodecahedron, made of sheet copper and soldered together on one side. Into this had been placed a document, which was a parchment of male calfskin. On it Dr. Steiner had drawn 3 waving lines representing the hierarchies weaving around the dodecahedron. This ‘stone’, its double 12 foldedness, is an image of the striving human soul – a microcosm planted in a macrocosm. Sparkling new roof for The address by Rudolf Steiner was made even more solemn because the very Sophia House! elements seemed to conspire against this human effort in the year preceding the outbreak of war to achieve something truly spiritual by constructing this Editorial unique building. Since only 3 days notice could be given only about 40 people could be present and braved the storm that broke on them after sunset on the Foundation Stone evening of 20 September 1913....just as the ceremony was beginning. Torrents of rain fell, and a gale howled around them as Rudolf Steiner’s powerful voice sounded out above the noise of the elements.

  • An Open Letter on Behalf of Independent Schools of New England
    An Open Letter on Behalf of Independent Schools of New England, We, the heads of independent schools, comprising 176 schools in the New England region, stand in solidarity with our students and with the families of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. The heart of our nation has been broken yet again by another mass shooting at an American school. We offer our deepest condolences to the families and loved ones of those who died and are grieving for the loss of life that occurred. We join with our colleagues in public, private, charter, independent, and faith-based schools demanding meaningful action to keep our students safe from gun violence on campuses and beyond. Many of our students, graduates, and families have joined the effort to ensure that this issue stays at the forefront of the national dialogue. We are all inspired by the students who have raised their voices to demand change. As school leaders we give our voices to this call for action. We come together out of compassion, responsibility, and our commitment to educate our children free of fear and violence. As school leaders, we pledge to do all in our power to keep our students safe. We call upon all elected representatives - each member of Congress, the President, and all others in positions of power at the governmental and private-sector level – to take action in making schools less vulnerable to violence, including sensible regulation of fi rearms. We are adding our voices to this dialogue as a demonstration to our students of our own commitment to doing better, to making their world safer.

  • Camphill and the Future
    DISABILITY STUDIES | RELIGION M C KANAN THE CAMPHILL MOVEMENT, one of the world’s largest and most enduring networks of intentional communities, deserves both recognition and study. CAMPHILL A ND Founded in Scotland at the beginning of the Second World War, Camphill communities still thrive today, encompassing thousands of people living in more CAMPHILL than one hundred twenty schools, villages, and urban neighborhoods on four continents. Camphillers of all abilities share daily work, family life, and festive THE FUTURE celebrations with one another and their neighbors. Unlike movements that reject mainstream society, Camphill expressly seeks to be “a seed of social renewal” by evolving along with society to promote the full inclusion and empowerment of persons with disabilities, who comprise nearly half of their residents. In this Spirituality and Disability in an Evolving Communal Movement multifaceted exploration of Camphill, Dan McKanan traces the complexities of AND THE the movement’s history, envisions its possible future, and invites ongoing dia- logue between the fields of disability studies and communal studies. “Dan McKanan knows Camphill better than anyone else in the academic world FUTURE and has crafted an absorbing account of the movement as it faces challenges eighty years after its founding.” TIMOTHY MILLER, author of The Encyclopedic Guide to American Inten- tional Communities “This book serves as a living, working document for the Camphill movement. Spirituality and Disability Communal Movement in an Evolving McKanan shows that disability studies and communal studies have more to offer each other than we recognize.” ELIZABETH SANDERS, Managing Director, Camphill Academy “With good research and wonderful empathy, McKanan pinpoints not only Cam- phill’s societal significance but also how this eighty-year-old movement can still bring potent remediation for the values and social norms of today’s world.” RICHARD STEEL, CEO, Karl König Institute DAN MCKANAN is the Emerson Senior Lecturer at Harvard Divinity School.
