Class 7-8 Mandarin Class Calligraphy
This year’s students are the first to experience Mandarin as a foreign language class at Ashwood. This subject is a pilot program for us, and so far students are loving the language as well as the artistic work involved.
Ashwood is accredited by the Association of Waldorf Schools of North America (AWSNA); the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC); and the Waldorf Early Childhood Association of North America (WECAN). Ashwood is also approved through the Maine Department of Education. The Early Childhood program is licensed as a daycare by the Maine Department of Health and Human Services.
