We are proud to introduce our newest Business Spon We are proud to introduce our newest Business Sponsor, Sharon Hyman at In-Joy Therapy and Yoga (@sharoninjoy)!

In-Joy Therapy and Yoga is a one-stop psychotherapy shop that offers a highly individualized approach. Sharon believes in holistic, comprehensive care, and uses a range of tools to help her clients find more joy, improve relationships + social skills, feel better with the life they choose, work through anxiety and depression, build self esteem, and heal.

Sharon serves people of all ages and stages including kids, teens, and young adults. She coaches parents with all sorts of worries and concerns about their children including helping them navigate accessing supports, helping them with their own dis-regulated nervous systems, and feeling more centered about their family life.

Check out Sharon's upcoming parent workshops on January 16th and February 6th! 

January 16, 2026 - This workshop will help you have a creative and excellent toolbox to help your kids get and stay regulated. This one is for you if you feel disregulated yourself, have kids with big emotions or tantrums, have kids with anxiety or any neurodiversity. You’ll learn how to co-regulate, how to teach your kids some skills, and how to embody deep calm and peacefulness.

February 6, 2026 - This workshop builds on the idea that every kid is doing the best they can and that their behavior is communication.  What is your kid attempting to tell you, but does not have the words or the adult brain to explain? This workshop is for parents who feel frustrated with specific behaviors that they are seeing in their kids and want advice, support, tools to better help. We will use real life examples of behaviors that are frustrating or complicated and learn strategies with how to help.

Sharing and celebrating our learning... Our fourt Sharing and celebrating our learning...

Our fourth grade class closed out their archeology unit with a learning celebration. Learning celebrations offer students the opportunity to celebrate and share what they have learned with other classes in the school and with their families and often involve some kind of presentation. In this instance, fourth grade students took guests on a tour of their classroom and provided guests with facts and information about the projects on display. These kids are so knowledgeable and we were particularly impressed with how many of them uplifted the work and learning of their peers. 

Great work, 4th Grade Grizzly Bears!
