"My 2 year old attended a Moms Morning Out program with a car pool line drop off and pick up system. There was minimal face to face contact with the teachers. I relied heavily on their microSteps activit-e website to communicate with the director and teachers as well as monitoring the weekly curriculum and class events. I never had to worry about missing something important with the automatic email feature. As the class room mom, planning activities and getting the parents involved was never easier – no flyers or copies to make! microSteps is an excellent program that truly connects the parent to the classroom."

"When I was first told that our school would be using microSteps in order to setup another website for the school, I was a bit resistant to the idea because the majority of what goes on the site would be my responsibility, as would getting our 250 plus parents to register; however, microSteps has quickly become one of my favorite responsibilities at work. Working with the site has been a total blessing. Once the parents were registered and had navigated their way around the site, it became a fantastic communication tool that is just what we needed. The website looks great and uploading new information to the site is easy, and whenever I do have any sort of problem, the support staff at microSteps is always there to assist and their response time is remarkably fast and accurate. I am very pleased to say the best, with the entire microSteps team and package." Maggie Snow, administrator, Dunwoody Christian Academy
"I had been searching for the perfect website for our preschool for several years. I even took a graphic design class thinking that I could design a web site that would work for us. It became VERY clear that I was way over my head in attempting that! After attending a workshop presented by MicroSteps at the Georgia Preschool Assoc, I new I had found the answer for our preschool! Microsteps provides the perfect balance between what the Administration can update and what the teachers can allow on the website and how informed the parents can be. It has been such an easy transition for all of us to learn to use the website instead of sending home hundreds of pieces of paper in book bags. My favorite part is the photo albums. Parents can choose which pictures to print. Thank you Microsteps!!"
Leslie Rose, Program Director, Northside Methodist Preschool
"As a teacher, we love using the activit-e/Microsteps website. The classroom pages are so easy to use and update daily, weekly or monthly so that parents are informed. We can highlight special activities that happened in the classroom that day and post photos for every occasion. We can even make special photo albums and parents can order photos right off the site! The best part is that we as a school are ‘going green” and this means that we are saving paper, trees and helping the environment."Shaun McCarthy, Northside Methodist Preschool
"I am writing to let you know how pleased I have been with the new technology my child's preschool has been using. microSteps' program has made a great difference in the communication between parents and teachers and intra communication amongst the parents. My son loves playing the games and listening to the stories. These learning tools allow me to stay informed as to the curriculum in the class. I find the reminders that let me know exactly which topic was updated by the teacher very helpful in staying on top of anything that goes on in my child's classroom. Our entire family enjoys looking at the pictures. As parents we take many pictures of our children but how often do we get to have pictures of them active at school. We look forward to learning more about additional offering from microSteps in the future."
Anat Granath, parent, Schiff Preschool
"microSteps has helped make my life more organized. I have four kids and used to get so much paper home in the backpacks. Now with microsteps, I just go online each week, check the website and know exactly what is happening in the classroom. I can also check upcoming dates when things are due. My child's teacher downloads new pictures of the kids at school each week. The program is a winner." Lori Bohrer, parent, Schiff Preschool
