As a young boy I attended a very strict boarding school for boys – while my education was certainly academically sound, the atmosphere was stern and lacked an appreciation for the creative. My creative muse was found a little later in life and is what inspires me today. Now as a father, I am so inspired by my son’s school and educational curriculum- it makes me wish I’d been able to attend such an amazing school.
I created this video for a recent fundraiser at The Stone Bridge School to illustrate the incredible activities and programs offered, and to help the school raise funds to support specialty teachers and programs. Stone Bridge offers many specialty classes such as movement and breathing classes, music, Spanish classes, as well as more traditional art classes. All have been incredibly influential on my son and his own creative journey for which I am incredibly grateful.
The Stone Bridge School is based in community – families and teachers together using Waldorf inspired methods to nourish and educate our children. While it is a public charter school, Stone Bridge offers a philosophy, curriculum, and teaching method that embraces the developmental model of awakening each child’s full and unique potential. The Waldorf Method believes in developing creative imagination by nurturing the true sense of wonder and reverence for nature and humanity inherent in all young children.
