Sea Star is dedicated to providing Waldorf education programs for the children and families of South Florida. Our faculty is committed to teaching in ways that allow the potential for learning, loving and creating to unfold naturally in children while helping to remove obstacles in their paths. Academics are taught through a rich tapestry of classic literature, oral tradition, art, music, drama, movement and direct experience.

At Sea Star we are preparing children to be conceptual thinkers equipped with self-understanding, compassion, expressiveness and creative problem-solving skills. We believe that childhood is a precious time that is meant to be honored. The Waldorf curriculum inspires children’s imaginations and builds connections between the two hemispheres of the brain. The capacities that children bring extend far beyond the scope of standard curriculum and standardized testing. By nourishing the children's innate thirst for knowledge & wisdom, we are preparing them to be pioneers in the future of humanity.

The Two Day Buttercup Nursery will begin in January 2012, and run through May 2012. Classes will be held on Thursday and Friday of each week from 8:45am until 12:45pm. The program will be led by Sea Star’s Buttercup Nursery teacher Stacy Scheile.

This is a very exciting time at Sea Star, and we welcome new families to join our community! Please contact us as soon as possible for further information on this program and to find out how to enroll.

Please join us the first Thursday of every month for Visitor’s Morning!

Sea Star Initiative in Boca Raton is an arts enrichment center offering programs based on the Waldorf philosophy. These include Parent & Child classes, Nursery Class, Kindergarten, and programs for children Grades 1-4. The first Thursday morning of each month is Visitors' Morning, and we welcome you to join us at 8:45 am.

The morning will begin with a brief introduction to the Waldorf curriculum, followed by an observation time in one of our Elementary classrooms. We will then tour the Early Childhood programs, to include a visit to the kindergarten during their outdoor play and a visit to a Parent & Child class in session. We will end with a time for questions and answers.
The morning will be hosted by Charissa Johnson, the Early Childhood Enrollment Coordinator and one of the Parent & Child teachers, along with core faculty from our elementary classes. Charissa attended Waldorf School from Nursery through grade 12, and it is a wonderful opportunity to ask any questions you may have about the education from someone who has experienced it. It is also a wonderful opportunity to discover an educational program here in South Florida that is truly committed to honoring each child and her/his unique stage of development.

We recognize that all parents are striving to do what is best for their children, and to find the educational approach that best fits their child and family. Please RSVP to 561-452-3618 for Early Childhood and Elementary Visitors' Morning.

We look forward to seeing you at Sea Star!
