Who We Are
The beginning of something wonderful
Mighty Oaks School is a premiere Non-Public Private School in Oakland County, Michigan. Our curriculum is inspired by Waldorf Education, beginning with first grade and building the grades one by one each year on the property of Acorn Kinderhouse.
Our inaugural school year begins Fall 2025!
Each classroom is a 4-season yurt, in the woods at Acorn Kinderhouse. At Mighty Oaks School we prioritize depth and breadth of academic rigor through direct instruction, the arts, and extended time in nature. As taught by Dr. Rudolf Steiner, we honor the development of the whole child through engaging the head, heart, and hands.
Mighty Oaks School is comprised of a group of families, driven to bring a high quality education that follows the teachings of Dr. Rudolf Steiner for their children and countless children to come. Led by Katlyn Boucher, School Director & certified Waldorf Teacher, along with the specialty faculty: Charne Lichtenberg and Caroline Smart, the Mighty Oaks School is an emerging force of cultivating a learning community for children as well as for parents, in the way that Waldorf lends a hand to nourish the child and the whole family.
While Mighty Oaks School is Waldorf inspired, it is following in the footsteps of many established Waldorf schools by starting out with a First Grade class and adding a grade each year.
