I went to the Waldorf school in Calgary from grades 4 to 6 back when it used to be in the area near Marda Loop. It was a great experience. I loved that school and remember a lot of positive things about my experience there. The arts enrichment was awesome. I went back into the public system for grades 7-12, though in a special program. Had I been on a standard track I think I would have gone crazy with boredom (such was my experience when I had regular classes). I'm certainly glad I went to the Waldorf school for those three years though.

Still, not every private school is worth it. The school I work in has yearly tuition as high as about $20,000+ per year, but I don't think the proportional increase in cost is necessarily matched by a proportional increase in quality.
