What Family Service Looks Like
Stepping Stone School App
One app. Every part of childcare, simplified. From tuition to daily reports, the Stepping Stone School app keeps your family connected in one place. Get updates on learning, meals, naps and activities, receive emergency alerts by text, view your child’s history and mark them out sick or on vacation, all through a private, secure app.
ABCmouse at Home
Every Pre-K classroom uses ABCmouse, an engaging online curriculum covering math, science, reading, art and culture. Families get free access to the full program so learning can continue at home.
Sign Language at Home
ASL is part of every age group at Stepping Stone School. Download our free handbook to practice the signs your child uses in class every day.

Closings
Holiday Closures
We keep holiday closures to a minimum for our families’ convenience. Campuses close for New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and the day after, Christmas Eve afternoon and Christmas Day.
Weather & Facility Closures
Safety guides every decision. We rarely close because of weather, but if a campus needs to close or open late, we’ll post the update on our Closings page and send emergency alerts through the Stepping Stone School App.
