"Receive the children in reverence, educate them with love, let them go forth in freedom.”
-Rudolf Steiner
Primrose Hill School meets children as unique individuals, providing them with a safe, nurturing environment that feeds the senses and inspires the imagination. We offer a social experience that engenders compassion and responsibility. We are inspired by the curricular indications of Waldorf education, with an emphasis on engagement with the natural world. We encourage curiosity, creative thinking, and confidence to support a lifelong love of learning.
Our 7.5-acre campus in Rhinebeck, NY includes three beautiful schoolhouses, friendly farm animals, an expansive vegetable garden, natural play-yards, and a barn.
