Waldorf education is part of a social initiative to develop new forms for economy based on global, altruistic solidarity, for the legal life of the state based on democratic equality, and for cultural life based on the spiritual freedom of the individual. It is an education for the future.

Though not specific to creating a Waldorf school, this is the story of a some ordinary citizens who, united by a dream, have created a Boston charter school (grade 5-12) from the ground up. It is a story of how they met, fashioned a common vision, struggled with process/protocol in developing an organizational structure as
well as the impact on their worklife, friendships, and marriages. Their story is common to those who have started Waldorf schools or Waldorf-inspired charter schools.
