[edit] Benjamin Agosto a Waldorf alumnus?

Benjamin Agosto attended the Chicago Waldorf School through Grade 8 and graduated the grade school, per the following note posted on the Mothering magazine discussion group for Waldorf Grads and how they're doing... on 2/22/2006. He attended other schools for high school to be closer to ice skating coaches. His mother was a kindergarten teacher at the school:

My friend from Chicago, Debbie Barford, sent out this story. She said it was okay to share on Mothering. <snip>

Chicago Waldorf Grade School alum, Ben Agosto, and his partner are the 2006 Olympic silver medalists in the Ice Dancing category. See the CWS newsletter for this week for a picture: page no longer available

Ben's mother, Miriam, was a CWS kindergarden teacher until they moved to the Chicago suburbs to be closer to his ice skating coaches.

I think that's an adequate citation. Unfortunately there's no place to put a citation footnote on a category. If there are no objections, I'll put the category link back. Merci, EPadmirateur (talk) 04:55, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
