  • Is learning through cake fractions and knitting any better? The Waldorf advocates make it tough to compare, partly because as private schools they administer no standardized tests in elementary grades. And they would be the first to admit that their early-grade students may not score well on such tests because, they say, they don’t drill them on a standardized math and reading curriculum.

    This article is a view of a private school that does not use technology until 8th grade. Usually, business/technology leaders send their kids here to give them a rounded education, and think students can pick up technology easier later in life. Most parents report that technology can be picked up later in life, and shouldn't have a place in the elementary classroom. Search Criteria: No technology in school
