Vision

The WISE is a thriving Waldorf school housed in an inspiring and functionally designed space that enhances student learning across the range of WESE programming. Both our building and surrounding land reflect our values of ecological sustainability, accessibility, human connectedness and well-being.

Our Waldorf-trained teachers provide child development-centered Waldorf pedagogy in tandem with the Alberta Curriculum. Teachers are supported in adapting to an ever-evolving environment- improving accessibility, welcoming diversity and nurturing community relations.

The WISE maintains a sustainable financial model to meet the needs of our school.

The WISE is known for its talented, committed staff and students who demonstrate community responsibility, reciprocity, stewardship and a passion for life and education. The WISE maintains its designation as an ‘Associate Member School’ within AWSNA.
