"I have been with the Stepping Stones family since 2012. I just received a letter from my daughters school and she has tested out of her grade and has been asked to join the "gifted" group.. I know some smarts may run in the family, but most of it comes from her foundation she received from Stepping Stones, I want you to know you are changing lives and doing well at it!"
