It highlights traditional Seventh-day Adventist principles of health and education, especially as espoused by early Seventh-day Adventist founder Ellen G. White, who wrote extensively on health and education. Although founded by Adventists, it has never been legally affiliated with the Seventh-day Adventist Church.
Although it is spelled like a German word, the name "Weimar" is derived from the name of a Native American chief named "Weemah" and is pronounced like "Weemer" (IPA wiːmər).

Fill all the glasses there—for why
Should every creature drink but I?
Why, man of morals, tell me why?”
