Maggie Soeder
Music substitute
Maggie Soeder, serving as our new music sub, is super excited to begin sharing music with us. While music has always been a part of her life, from youth choirs, playing flute and handbells, even performing in musicals during her Theater Performance major, it wasn’t until she started taking her own 3 kids to music classes that she discovered how much she loves and finds joy in making and sharing music with other families.
A Music Together teacher for more than 10 years and a music & movement instructor around the city, she has been enthusiastically moving and grooving with some of her favorite people…kids of ALL ages! They inspire her to be, not only a better teacher and musician, but a better human, even a better parent. She is beyond excited to continue her own musical journey here with us.

20-21 Yearbook / Lyndon Campus Memorybook
This past year has been rather unusual… and the 2020-21 yearbook will reflect all the strangeness and beauty that transpired! Because many of our beloved festivals and faires didn’t take place in their traditional form this year, we need your help to ensure the magic of Waldorf is captured in the 2020-21 yearbook.
If you have photos from this past school year, or from years prior that capture your favorite memories from Lyndon campus, please email them to yearbook@waldorflouisville.com
The hybrid 20-21 Yearbook / Lyndon Campus Memorybook will be available for pick-up at our new Rock Creek Campus later this Fall for $30.00.
Please CLICK HERE to complete the pre-order form – once the books are available, you will receive a follow-up email confirming your preferred payment method.
As part of our conscious work to move forward with care and concern for those who are the most vulnerable and marginalized, please click below to read the letter from WSL’s Faculty and Board of Trustees regarding our DEI (Diversity, Equality, and Inclusion) work.
