Eleanor Johnson received her BS in Elementary Education from Utah State University in 2021 and is currently seeking her Waldorf Teacher Certification from Great Lakes Waldorf Institute. 

She appreciates the child-centered learning environment fostered in the Waldorf education setting,  as well as a curriculum that supports the whole child. 

"A central objective of Waldorf teaching is to create a sense of wonder about each subject, even math."  -Todd Oppenheimer, The Atlantic

Prairie Hill Waldorf School is committed to excellence in academics. The Waldorf approach aligns with current educational theory that learning should be age appropriate and multi-sensory, acquired not only through sight and sound, but also through touch, movement, imagination, and feeling. Students receive a comprehensive education that not only engages the intellect, but the whole child through head, heart and hands – an education that integrates the artistic and creative with the scientific and intellectual study.
