What’s Happening at PWS

Land Acknowledgement

Portland Waldorf School recognizes that we are here because of sacrifices forced upon the original people of this land. We honor with gratitude the Multnomah, Kathlamet, Clackamas, Cowlitz, Siletz, Tumwater, Watlala bands of the Chinook, the Tualatin, Kalapuya and many other Tribal nations and people of the Willamette and Columbia River regions, who belong to and have cared for this land since time immemorial. We honor and pay our respects to the Native American people of this land, past, present and future.

Portland Waldorf School admits students of any race, color, national and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school. It doesn't discriminate on the basis of race, color, national and ethnic origin in administration of its educational policies, admissions policies, scholarship and loan programs, and athletic and other school-administered programs.
