School Philosophy and Mission

We believe that early childhood is a time of exploration and discovery. We know that young children learn by 'hands on' expereince. Our staff is highly qualified to enhance each childs growth and development in a stimulating atmosphere of warmth and understanding. Our low ratio allows each child to develop as an individual as well as part of a group, in a happy safe and nurturing environment. Our goal is to focus on individual independence, self-esteem and social skills. Stepping Stones multi-clutural curriculum is activity based to develop skills through an array of learning centers suchs as art, music , language, science, pre-reding, pre-math and socialization.
