Mission 

The objective of the Waldorf School of New Orleans is to foster diversity within the community it serves. The Tuition Adjustment Program (TAP) is designed to enable qualified students to attend Waldorf School of New Orleans who might not otherwise be able to  attend for financial reasons.  ​​

​
