HELP KEEP CRUCIAL CHILDCARE SPOTS OPEN!

We, a group of dedicated local parents, are working to transition the school into a board-managed, 501(C)3 nonprofit. This evolution will allow Stepping Stones to remain open and keep 24 precious childcare spaces open in our community. Given the endemic childcare crisis facing Vermont, these spaces are particularly crucial. Owning and operating the school as a nonprofit avails the school tax advantages, grant opportunities and donation potential that will allow it to pay teachers more and charge parents less. We envision Stepping Stones as a smart leader in small, locally-owned, community supported early childhood education. Our board members are all current or former parents and know first hand what a special and unique school Stepping Stones is and that it must remain a fixture in our community.
