The
Hartsbrook School offers students an educational experience
that stimulates the imagination and awakens a joyful love
of learning.
Founded in 1981, the school is inspired
by the educational philosophy and methods of Austrian
philosopher and scientist, Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925)
who founded the first Waldorf School in 1919. Waldorf
education uses innovative teaching approaches and a developmental
curriculum integrating arts, sciences and humanities.
Its growing popularity has made it the fastest growing
independent school movement in the world with over 800
schools worldwide and more than 170 schools throughout
the United States.
Located
on 19 acres of lush green land in Hadley, Massachusetts,
the main campus offers a stunning view of local farms
with the Holyoke Range to the south. The Homestead, where
the third and fourth grades are located, is also home
to sheep, goats, chickens, rabbits, vegetable and flower
gardens. Our youngest students enjoy the beautiful and
home-like environment of the Ben Smith building, an inn
built in 1776, with a large play yard, gardens and flowering
trees.
