The Waldorf Education List

Waldorf List Guidelines

The Waldorf List is a resource for parents of children in Waldorf schools and others interested in Waldorf education. The Waldorf List presumes an attitude of good will of its subscribers toward Waldorf education. Its primary goal is to increase knowledge and understanding, and to explore the possibilities of this pedagogy. The list is neither intended to focus on defending Waldorf education, nor to advocate Waldorf education to those considering it. This list presupposes a level of maturity and mutual tolerance from its participants.

Many of our subscribers are knowledgeable about Internet discussion list "netiquette." However, if you have a question, concern, or are not sure of protocol, please ask the managers at WALDORF-request@LISTSERV.ICORS.ORG. In general the Waldorf list follows standard netiquette.
