8th Grade Student Presentations

The 2024 8th-grade class of NSWS invites you to attend the 8th-grade project presentations. The 8th-grade presentations will display the year-long projects that the students have been working on. Topics this year include:

• Oil portraiture
• Learning to SCUBA dive
• Building a Go-Kart
• Classical architecture
• Singing and songwriting
• Short-story writing
• World cuisine and cooking
• Improv acting
• Sewing a quinceañera dress

At Nevada Sage Waldorf School and other Waldorf schools around the world, each 8th-grade student embarks upon a year-long independent study. Students pursue an in-depth study of a chosen topic under the guidance of an expert mentor. Students are invited to select a project that piques their interest and has the potential to lay the groundwork for a lifelong passion. Across the year, students strengthen planning and research skills, cultivate new capacities and knowledge, and experience bringing a self-initiated project to completion.
