“Stepping Stone School is a child-centered school that builds curiosity and an excitement for learning. The teachers and staff provide a variety of learning experiences throughout the day, all matched to the developmental level of each child. The curriculum is excellence plus. It is more than a set of activities. It is a well-thought-out plan to nurture and develop all areas of the child: cognitive, physical, social, and emotional. Children leave Stepping Stone School ready to be successful in any formal educational setting.”
– Joyce Juntune, Ph.D. – Advisory Board member
Nationally Recognized. Family Focused.
The best organizations – the ones that really shine– are led by people who are interested, involved and invested in every facet. Most importantly, they are the ones who set the standards that others follow.
The Pavers are setting those standards as leaders in Early Care and Education. Rhonda, Bill and their adult children take an active role in the day-to-day operations of Stepping Stone School.
A Culture of Stability
Rhonda’s guidance is best reflected in the culture of stability she and her professional staff create for Stepping Stone School teachers, parents and children. It is a culture where great ideas are respected and rewarded. Happy, engaged teachers shepherd and lead engaged children.
