Future Leaders and Inventors School Age Program

After-School Enrichment Program

Stepping Stone School's "Future Leaders and Inventors" After School Program inspires growing minds and promotes your child's total education and development! We know that Einstein, Bach, Curie and Earhart walk among us!

Our innovative After School Curriculum engages your children's natural curiosity, allowing them to explore mathematical, scientific, literary and creative activities in a comfortable, stimulating, learner-directed atmosphere. Weekly themes such as Lance Armstrong, Amelia Earhart and Albert Einstein tie together interdisciplinary activities in interest areas such as Writer's Workshop, Architect's Archway, Syntax Station, Discovery Lab, High Tech Headquarters, The Louvre and Shakespeare's Nook. Stepping Stone School's combination of comfort, creative design and advanced technology make learning effective and, most importantly, downright fun!

Homework Lab

Each day students will have scheduled homework time to complete homework assignments or spend some time beginning their homework assignments before heading home. Our School Age guides know how important homework is and encourage students to get it done and provide access to the Encyclopedia Brittannica on the computer for students to use for research.

Summer Adventure Camp

Continued Learning: Stepping Stone School’s summer program allows time for children to participate in daily math games, puzzles, literature, philanthropy and journal-writing designed to build skils and increase retention in important academic areas. Our goals are to enhance your child’s awareness of literacy and math in an engaging camp environment, and to be a partner with you, ensuring your child is ready for the coming school year!

Historical Themes: Our exclusive program feature, “Future Leaders and Inventors,” focuses on individuals who have contributed to our world through creative, scientific, musical or artistic endeavors and discoveries. While engaged in weekly themes like The Amazing Flying Machine, The World Below, Pyramids and Papyrus, and Creative Cat, the children at Stepping Stone School will learn, develop and stay ready for school. Our daily enrichment builds strong values, character and citizenship!

SS Summer Adventure CampCreative Recreation: Some of this year’s captivating field trips include rockwall climbing, a ceramics studio, bowling, ‘hamster balls’ and laser tag. Vigorous physical activity and good old-fashioned summer fun and learning will have your child wishing this camp lasted all year long!

Enhancements: These unique and entertaining programs have been selected based on fundamentals that enhance children’s knowledge and experience in the areas of Health and Wellness, Dance, Computer Technology, Music, and Martial Arts. Swim Lessons are available, and other enhancement programs vary by location.

        

Math & Literacy Club

Stepping Stone School has formally established a specific area in your child’s classroom which supports, encourages and inspires your child’s love for reading and math. I invite you to explore this area with your child. More specifically, our summer camp curriculum will include daily: a vocabulary word of the day, math game rotations, individual journal writing, and a book reading challenge. Your child will have the opportunity to win colored ribbons for milestone achievements based on participation in this fun and educational club.

We believe this enhancement will be a great addition to our larger concept of Future Leaders and Inventors; which highlights Stepping Stone School's commitment to supporting your child’s belief in himself/herself and the confidence to become whatever he/she aspires to be.
