Aurora Waldorf School has been the absolute perfect choice for our daughter. We love that they focus on learning through play at the youngest grades and being outdoors at all grades. The class sizes are small and students receive individualized attention. The educators are the best you will find around! I highly recommend this school to everyone!

Watching graduates of Aurora Waldorf School over decades, including my daughter now in her 30's, what stands out is how capable and fearless they are. Seems like they can do anything, and what they can't yet do, they're open and eager to learn. A broad and profound education...we're forever grateful.

I first stepped inside AWS in 2016 with my 2 year old daughter for their weekly Parent/Toddler program. We were met by the smell of fresh bread baking and the cozy, warm colors of fall lined the hallways in student artwork and felted woodland displays. Every staff member and teacher graciously greeted us with a smile as we walked past classrooms of children singing, reciting poetry, dancing and playing recorders. We never let. My now 2nd grader can't wait to get up every morning and get to school. Her favorite part is feeling free outside, hiking to the creek behind the school, finding animal tracks in the snow, sitting under the trees and watching the birds and sky. Inside her favorite classes are Games played in their large gymnasium and Handwork where she has taken great pride in knitting her own doll and adorable animals. The teachers at this school are really like an extension of our family. Trusting my child in the care of a school that educates her mentally, physically, emotionally and individually is the easiest decision I've ever made.

You will never find a child unhappy at Waldorf. My husband and I are so proud to be a part of this wonderful school and to have the opportunity to send our daughter to AWS. I can say with complete confidence that I never question whether her needs are being met at this fantastic school.

We have been so happy at AWS! We live in the city of Buffalo but our children take the bus that is provided by the school. It is totally worth the distance--the campus is beautiful and there's no other school in Buffalo where they would have the opportunity to be immersed in nature. The value of the education for the investment couldn't be better. The teachers are empathetic, and we've enjoyed becoming a part of a supportive parent community. I would recommend AWS wholeheartedly!

AWS has expanded to launch a high school in 2010. A great education available from pre-K through 9th grade and growing.
