Madrona School Does not exist on Tuition Alone!
On the crisp evening of the Lantern Festival, our children sang in a circle. Then they walked into the dark, each holding a lantern they had fashioned in class. Our procession wound through Battle Point Park; the lanterns flickering like stars.
The singing of the children in the woods created a living embodiment of the Waldorf principle “learning in joy.” The glow invited families to pause, breathe, and remember the light and joy our community brings through the dark winter.
These moments do not happen by accident. They arise from the daily rhythm of morning circles, handwork, art-movement-integrated lessons, and seasonal celebrations—all lovingly cultivated by our teachers, families, and community. We need each of you - tuition covers only 80% of our costs to operate Madrona School.
Each contribution—whether a modest $25 joy gift or a $500 story-weaver gift—becomes a thread in the tapestry that holds Madrona together. When families, alumni, and friends give, we model for our children the Waldorf ideal of Gemeinschaft: a living community celebrating sharing and responsibility.
