This group serves Waldorf homeschooling parents who reside in the northeast U.S. region - specifically, MA, ME, NH, VT, CT, RI, NY, NJ, and PA - with discussion and support from a perspective that is both grassroots-based and anthroposophically-inspired.

Membership is open ONLY to those who live in this region, AND are also currently and actively homeschooling one or more of their own children ages 6-14 (or working with "grades 1-8") with Waldorf. Those with younger children are also welcome, as per our group guidelines.

A basic working knowledge of the Waldorf curriculum is appreciated, though not required for membership. All are welcome, including those working with any Waldorf-inspired resources and curriculum materials.

All membership is moderator-approved. Your request MUST include a) the state in which you reside; b) how many children you are currently homeschooling and their ages; c) your interest in joining this group. Incomplete requests are automatically deleted.

Once approved, a one-time personal introduction to the group is REQUIRED by all members within the first 14 days of joining, or else one is deleted from the database.

Waldorf homeschooling parents who reside in this region and are working with children ages 13 and up (or working with approximately "grades 7-12") with Waldorf are invited to join our sister group: Waldorf_Northeast_HomeschoolTeens.

All are welcome to join our Regional Networking and Announcement group for making connections and learning about related events and activities happening in this region: Waldorf_Northeast

This group is moderated and maintained by Waldorf Family Network:
