Raleigh Day School

Raleigh Day School is a Waldorf-inspired school, and aspires to become the first school in Wake County to be recognized by the Association of Waldorf Schools of North America (AWSNA) as a Waldorf School. We recently earned Associate status with the Waldorf Early Childhood Association of North America.

We accept children ages 3 to 6 years of age for our early childhood program. We currently offer 1st, 2nd, and 4th grades. We will add one grade every year until we reach 8th grade.

Teachers typically carry a class from first to eighth grade. When a teacher holds a class in this way, the teacher and children come to know, understand, and value each other in a deep way. The children, feeling secure in a long-term relationship, are better able to learn. The teacher, knowing each child's strengths and weaknesses, is able to use that knowledge to tailor daily lessons. The interactions between the teacher and parents become more meaningful over time, forming a partnership to help guide the child along their developmental path.

Aftercare is available at Raleigh Day School.

We are located at the former St. Mark's Episcopal Church property.
