I currently that have 2 children that attend Stepping Stone Pre & Grade School. This is the best choice that my husband and I have made in regards to their education. The changes that I''ve seen between both of them compared to the beginning of the school year is remarkable. My views have been validated by the results of the citywide test scores as well as what I''ve seen them do at home. I am pleased that they are in this school and I am pleased that they now offer a 3rd grade class. For anyone that is looking for a recommendation, this is by far the best that I''ve seen in regards to private schools.
