About this program
FACT (Future Academy of Critical Thinking) is an international Waldorf-inspired school located in Las Terrenas, Dominican Republic. The school's mission is to provide a context that promotes critical thinking as an approach to developing leaders who will truly and impactfully shape humanity. Founded on Rudolf Steiner's educational philosophy, FACT aims to create an environment that fosters intellectual curiosity, artistic creativity, self-directed learning methodology, and the development of essential skills for rising above the mainstream currents of an increasingly artificial world. Las Terrenas offers families a Caribbean beach town lifestyle with a strong European influence, particularly French expat community.
