🌟 A HUGE Step N’ Stones THANK YOU! 🌟

Last Thursday was a dream come true for our students — all thanks to the incredible partnership between the Thomas University Men’s Soccer Team and Thomas University Educators Service Chapter!

This amazing team came together to purchase and assemble our very first playground swing set, and our students could not have been more excited. From the moment they stepped outside and saw it… pure JOY! Smiles, laughter, and happy squeals filled our campus. 💛💚

Their kindness, teamwork, and generosity created a beautiful new space for our students to play, regulate, and just be kids. We are so grateful for community partners who understand the power of play and step in to help us build safe, joyful learning environments.

To the TU Men’s Soccer Team and the Educators Service Chapter — thank you for making this moment possible and for pouring love into our kiddos.

This is what community looks like.
This is what impact feels like.

🌟 Fun Friday at Step N’ Stones! 🌟

Today was all smiles, sunshine, and pure joy! Our students spent the morning at the park enjoying playtime, fresh air, and friendship — and we had some very special guests join us!

A huge THANK YOU to Thomas University Basketball Team for spending time with our kiddos. Our students absolutely love when our TU friends come out to play, laugh, run, swing, and just enjoy being kids together. The bonds they’re building mean so much to us! 💙🏀

These are the moments that make learning magical — connection, community, and fun.
What an incredible Friday!

🌟 1st Grade Legends WONDER Wednesday! 🌟

Our 1st Grade Legends had an amazing WONDER Wednesday full of fun and learning! 🎉
In math, our 1st Graders learned a brand-new strategy — using the number line — and let’s just say it was a BIG DEAL! 🔢✨

They also explored the world of weather ☁️🌧️ by creating their very own rain cloud in a jar and ended the day “playing in the clouds.” 🌈 The smiles, the excitement, and the wonder made it an unforgettable day!

🇺🇸 Our 2nd Grade Titans Salute Our Veterans! 🇺🇸
Today our Titans took a moment to honor the brave men and women who have served our country. From writing thank-you letters to practicing their best salutes, our students learned that freedom isn’t free — it’s protected by heroes. 💙❤️🤍

We are so proud of their gratitude and respect as they celebrated Veterans Day the Step N’ Stones way — with heart, honor, and appreciation.
