Although part of the largest independent school movement in the world, The Waldorf School of New Orleans is the only Waldorf School within a 300 mile radius. Founded almost 25 years ago, WSNO competes with well-established private schools, as well as a growing number of charter schools in the Greater New Orleans Area. Because the Waldorf philosophy stands out amongst the crowd, they needed their digital presence to do the same.
