Help us continue to provide the best quality supplies for our students

Back to School Supplies Fund!

Waldorf schools use specialized supplies that may not be found in local stores. 

Rather than ask parents to purchase typical school supplies at a local store, parents at Wasatch Charter School are asked to contribute to the costs of the specialty supplies purchased by the school. This method allows every student to have the same supplies, provides high-quality natural and artistic materials, and ensures that purchasing is done with the best possible pricing.

All supplies are provided for all students, whether a contribution is made or not.

We consider homework to be "household work" and children should contribute to family life in that way. We ask all our students to read. Middle school years have limited homework which is mostly rooted in relevant experience rather than a worksheet.

We focus on preparing children not just for high school—but for life. While the transition to high school may bring new challenges (such as increased technology use), our students are well equipped. They are confident, creative thinkers who take initiative in their learning and are eager to engage with their teachers. Because they’ve had meaningful, hands-on learning experiences, they enter high school with strong social skills, self-motivation, and a belief in their own abilities. Many go on to excel in honors classes. We've seen countless success stories, especially from students who once faced challenges but rise to meet them—proving that the foundation we build truly lasts.
