Rhonda Paver

Rhonda represents the rare unity of passion, caring and logical decision-making that has led her to create this community where children learn and thrive, and educators are happy and excel in their work.

With a bachelor’s degree in history, philosophy, and theology and a master’s in childhood development, Rhonda is regarded as a leading expert in early childhood care and education. In 2011, the Governor appointed her as the only person in private business to the Texas State Advisory Council on Early Childhood Education and Care. She is also a writer and speaker, having presented multiple times at the World Forum on Early Care and Education, and at the National Association for the Education of Young Children’s National Conference.

Her love of learning keeps growing stronger and she finds, as she interacts with them, some of her best teachers are the Stepping Stone children. She has taken what she has learned and made Stepping Stone Schools Central Texas’s largest privately-owned and most respected private preschool.
