Founded in 2010, Bayou Village School is a community of parents, educators and other area members who share the goal of establishing an accredited Waldorf school in Central Houston. We currently offer an Early Childhood program for toddlers through Kindergarten and currently Elementary Grades 1-5 We are a licensed childcare facility by the State of Texas and a developing member of the Waldorf Early Childhood Association of North America.

​At Bayou Village School we aim to create an environment that respects the natural stages of childhood. One that generates a joy for learning which lasts a lifetime, has a creative, experiential and artistic curriculum. Our teachers strive to educate the whole child-the heart, the hands as well as the head. We are committed to developing capacities as well as skills so that our students will become self-aware, compassionate individuals with a sense of responsibility for the earth and the greater community.

As a school located in a city as international as Houston, our community is diverse and made up of families from across Texas, other cities from around the United States and countries beyond, including China, India, Australia, Mexico and England. Some of our families live nearby, while others drive into town from the outer Houston areas including Kingwood, Sugar Land and Katy. With this tapestry of backgrounds and culture, we are a vibrant community sharing different customs and traditions among families. We support each other and share common ground in our desire to raise our children in the warm, nurturing environment Bayou Village School provides.

We are located 5 minutes North of downtown Houston and 10 minutes east of the Heights neighborhood. For families who live further away, we are located conveniently off the Hardy Toll Road.
