We enrolled her in Olympia Waldorf trusting the promises of a nurturing environment, holistic education, community, and balance. What we actually experienced was chaos, lack of accountability, broken promises, and a lot of emotional strain. This school is nothing like what is advertised. Please do your research there are even documentaries that shed light on the reality. Sending my daughter here is one of my biggest regrets as a parent. If you want your child to be ostracized, send them here. Out of respect for my child I choose not to put specific details here. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out.

The whole staff is European they do not have staff members or teachers that represent any of the students of color. Students have been in numerous fights they tend to get a harsher punishment as they are students of color versus their European peers. There is systemic institutional racism in this school and lots of bias and it shows. I literally had to tell the principle why we don't use the word slave anymore because it takes away someone's identity and dehumanitizes them that we use the bird enslavement. And she was so ignorant that she was like wow I didn't know. As in her correculum they still call people slaves. They don't even teach African history they just About learning about Plantation life. Which doesn't give the students of color a very good start. Taught African American history these students could be proud that they came from advanced civilizations that had irrigation systems way before Europe. But you wouldn't want to teach that because you only like teaching European ideology and accomplishments.

I was a student here at OHS and graduated in 2025, I just have to say, a student named Chase…read moreO'Brien (musty dusty white boy who thought he was a gangster even though he's.. really not.) and a science teacher I had there made my experience worse. Firstly, Chase would constantly bully me to the point where I thought even breathing a wrong way would trigger him. And the thing is, I have autism and he went for me, why? because I was different than him. Second, one of the staff here, (earth and science teacher) has been absolutely terrible to me, she'd make me redo a project so many times, then had the nerve not to congratulate me for working so hard, in fact, THE PRINCIPAL HAD TO DO IT FOR HER, which made me feel terrible as I've been stuck in that class after school to work on it with her and I at least wanted her to be somewhat proud of me, but no, the principal had to do it for her which made me feel absolutely terrible, so I'm glad I got out of that class and never looked back. I've been wanting to talk about Chase for a while now, but I never found the courage, but now that I'm out of the school and I'm sure some of the staff and students have forgotten about me, I can FINALLY say this. So, if you're a woman (students have said Chase treats women like trash.), have a mental disability, are a different gender identity besides from the male to female binary, or are just simply existing, STAY CLEAR OF CHASE, HE'LL BE YOUR WORST NIGHTMARE. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk, and now I'll forget about this school once again and hopefully pray my little brother survives. (btw, amongst the list of people i listed, im part of the 'different gender identity besides from the male to female binary' and 'have a mental disability' groups as stated before.)
