AZALEA MOUNTAIN SCHOOL


Have you ever thought about why education inspired by Waldorf is different?

  • Azalea Mountain School offers a revolutionary notion:  that in the midst of our high-speed world, children should be provided a timeless space in which to do their sacred work.  We nurture the innate imagination, empathy, and will in each child as they learn through Head, Heart, and Hands.

  • How? By incorporating the arts, movement, nature, and storytelling into a classical academic curriculum based on Waldorf Education.
  • Our Vision at Azalea Mountain School is to protect the sanctity of childhood, nurture an abiding sense of wonder, and foster an evolving quest for truth.
  • Out Mission is to develop the will in our students to think with clarity, feel with compassion, and act with purpose in the world. 
  • We offer these programs: Morning Garden (parents and children), Kindergarten, Grades, and Middle School.


Our ANNUAL GIVING CAMPAIGN

  • AMS provides over 80% of its students with some form of financial aid, as we are committed to working with any family who wishes to join us.
  • Donations from our Annual Giving Campaign are essential in bridging the gap between tuition and the cost of keeping our school alive and available to the greater Asheville community.
  • With your donation you will receive a unique perk from our community: hand-created crafts made by the children, a service provided by a parent, bumper stickers, and much more!


The IMPACT

Your gift of any amount makes a difference!

  • Thanks to a generous friend of the school, your donation will be matched dollar for dollar up to $10,000!
  • Together we are giving children the gift of an education that ignites a love of learning, nurtures their soul, and prepares them to meet the challenges of the world in a way that enriches humanity and the earth.
  • The impact of an education based on Waldorf for the children of Azalea Mountain School creates a rich, thriving life experience for all!
