HI, I'm Lyndsay!
Thanks for stopping by today. As a former teacher and school counselor, here's one thing I know for sure:
When we shift our focus to teaching life skills and practicing wellness daily, we will notice that test scores improve, students/staff thrive, and communities change.
Creating a "generation of wellness" is possible. It takes consistent action and community.
We know it takes a village, which is why we've created this community. We are here to support you and your school in your journey from surviving to thriving.
