Navigating a New Normal: Meeting the Needs of Today with Heart and Soul

Thank you for joining friends and colleagues for the 2022 Alliance Annual Conference, an event at which teachers, administrators, and board members from Public Waldorf schools, independent Waldorf schools, and new initiatives from across the nation gather together for renewal and unity. We will find colleagueship, connection, inspiration, new tools, and insights to take back into our work. Through a combination of seed presentations, themed workshops, and networking opportunities, we will explore aspects of our changing landscape, and how we are “navigating a new normal” in Public Waldorf Education.
