The Platinum Learning for Life™ curriculum is directly overseen by Rhonda Paver, M.A., Bill Paver, Ph.D., Susan Brunk, M.A Ed., as well as our Advisory Board members.

The Platinum Learning for Life™ curriculum, forms the foundation of each student’s educational journey. Through this exclusive curriculum, we create individualized lesson plans to ensure readiness for the next steps in their educational progression, be it transitioning to the toddler program or becoming one of the most prepared students for kindergarten in Central Texas. The Platinum Learning for Life™ curriculum acts as a catalyst, unlocking each child’s incredible gifts and talents while nurturing them at every stage of their learning.

Our curriculum embraces Science, Technology, Relationships, Engineering, Arts, and Math (S.T.R.E.A.M.), highlighting the interconnectedness of these subjects. Through engaging activities like games, music, drawing, movement, and experiments, we help students explore and understand technical, scientific, mathematical, engineering, and artistic concepts. By incorporating "relationships" into our curriculum, we foster social-emotional development and character growth alongside academic learning.

Stepping Stone School supports its academic curriculum with specially selected programs and activities designed to expand our students’ knowledge and experience in health and wellness, communication and expression, art, music, dance, martial arts, science and technology.
