Homeschool Partnership

A creative, community-centered program for homeschoolers

We’re excited to extend our love of learning to the wider community through our Homeschool Partnership Program. This series invites homeschool students to join us on campus for hands-on, creative classes led by experienced Cedarwood teachers. Rooted in Waldorf Education, the program offers children a chance to explore the arts, connect with peers, and experience the warmth and rhythm of our school. Join two beloved Cedarwood Waldorf School instructors for weekly engaging enrichment classes. This nine-week series is designed especially for homeschool students in Grades 1–5 and is separate from our regular enrolled grades programming. Parents are welcome to stay and observe or drop off students.

Each week, students engage in creative movement and fun improvisational theater games with Mr. Zimmerman from 9:00-10:00, and explore the craft of fiber arts with Maestra Silvia from 10:00-11:15.

Theater Arts with Eric Zimmerman

In this fall season's theater workshop, we will explore a storytelling style that uses exaggerated gestures and body movements to express feelings, thoughts, and dialogue. Fueled by the imagination and ideas of our young actors, we will devise a presentation that features their own handmade masks! 

Handwork with Silvia Santana

During the handwork block, students will discover how old sweaters can be transformed into useful and beautiful creations. Through sewing, embroidery, natural dyeing, and creative design, children will create hands-on projects such as a recycled wool pouch, exploring natural colors from materials such as onion skins and avocado, and create a nature-inspired textile piece. They will develop practical handwork skills while nurturing creativity, patience, resourcefulness, and a deeper appreciation for natural materials and sustainability.
During the final few sessions, students will explore character, shape, color, texture, and expression as they design and create their own masks using recycled and natural materials. The course will culminate in a final performance and celebration, created in collaboration with Mr. Zimmerman.
