Human being needs some important spiritual aptitude, for example, develop individual interest and appritiate, so as independent determination skill of cognition the problem, these kinds of skill will develop during the age of teenager.
The currulium of high school is helping students to discover their own ability to solve the problem. The teacher of high schoiol is not having the absolute power, students can bring out their questions and all these questions shall be process by the teacher.

During these works teacher shall be helping students to overcome their individual feeling and also try to transmit that the "feeling" of destination is based on the ability of "understand". On the other hand, is pursing the attitude of "objectivity" in this emotional world.
During the study we require more individual work, such as main lesson book, essay and report. Especially 12 grades, students have the freedom to choose the topic of their senior project and they shall compete it.
We will discover that the student who is in Waldorf education system when they are in first grade, they have already had the ability to accomplish these works. That is because they didn't use their intelligent too early and they didn't accept too much abstract knowledge when they were too young. Their attitude is often clear, not doubtful and mired in minor details.
The goal of our Waldorf high school is to use "actual phenomenon" to teach. We describe the characteristic of a thing but not the definition.
