Three Waldorf School Students

Take Prizes

Artwork from 26 Housatonic Valley Waldorf students was submitted to participate in the Danbury Children First’s Tenth Annual Multicultural contest. Three of them took home prizes from a field of more than 450 entries. The winners were Tommy Warner Crouch, second prize in second grade category; Emma Green, second in fourth/fifth grade category; and Megan Morrow, third prize in the middle school category.

Multiculturalism is a central component of the Waldorf school curriculum where students begin to study Spanish and German in first grade. Children begin with songs and poems, graduating to grammar in fourth grade, and learning about cultures and traditions throughout.
