"I learned that you have to have empathy for others that way you can feel like you can help them. This will help me in my life because if I ever see someone who is upset I can use these skills to try to help. I think that empathy and compassion can help me because when someone is down or upset I can try my hardest to put myself in their shoes and try to help in any way I can. This class has helped me so much. Thank you so much.” ~AG "

"I love the breathing techniques. It is so helpful and I feel so calm when I do it. I was feeling frustrated with some of my friends the other day and I did heart breathing and it helped me feel better! I love the class and the #1 thing I have learned so far is how to calm down with the breathing techniques. I also learned that having empathy and compassion for someone can go a long way. In the video, I saw that when one person, that person then went and was kind to someone else. It can just go around and around! I also learned that having empathy is really important and can help you help someone else during a hard time. ~EB "

"I learned the strategies of STOP, NAME MY FEELINGS, and CALM DOWN in class today. It is important to know how to calm down your body because my heart, lungs, and brain are overworking and I cannot think clearly. When this happens, I may say or do things that I do not mean. I like the butterfly tap because it moves away from the traditional breathing, and it feels nice to be compressed. What I like most about the class is how it’s a nice place, there’s no pressure and the teacher isn’t afraid about the lesson plan going off the rails when we need more time to talk about things. I think that this class is really great!!! I love it! ~MR "

"I loved learning about little ways we can incorporate breathing and affirmation into our everyday lives. When we get upset, anxious, mad, or sad, we can do the belly breathing exercises to bring us back down and ground us. " "

"Stephanie has FAR exceeded our expectations about what this .25 Social and Emotional role could be. She has developed such a STRONG foundation for students and teachers and in short order and with limited presence due to the allotted FTE. Her relationships with staff and students is immeasurable and something special that doesn't typically happen. Her reflection and communication about this UIP strategy and our goals with SEL for student impact is top notch and has really supported us as an Admin. team. She is an AMAZING professional! "

"Stephanie has an exemplary class for relationships and environment. She has a true gift of finding strengths in every student and builds off of those strengths in order to get their true abilities during academic time. Steph has the patience of a saint! She is an active member of our PBS team and goes out of her way to make students feel safe and welcome even if they are not her own! She checks in on her previous students and spends time getting to know the incoming 3rd graders. Students feel safe to take risks and make mistakes in Steph's class. She is one of the most thoughtful teachers I have ever worked with. Overall Map Growth: Reading: 83% of students met their projected growth Math: 87% of students met their projected growth Stephanie made significant gains with her students. She also spent a lot of time to thoughtfully integrate content into literacy this year. I am so excited to have Stephanie on our writing leadership team next year. Stephanie is reflective and always open for feedback. Stephanie works in a growth mindset and is truly a life long learner. Stephanie is a huge asset to our PBS team. She is always willing to step in and help out. She is a team player that is highly respected by her peers. Stephanie will be taking on the leadership role of working with the district writing work next year. Her instructional expertise will be a huge asset in this planning and implementation and know it will push her to work outside her comfort zone and present in front of her peers! "

"Stephanie exhibits many strengths in collaboration. She is conscientious of putting ideas on the table and also listening to others ideas. She has a great balance in her personal style of collaboration. Stephanie has been a risk taker this year. She has stepped out of her comfort zone to lead the writing work in our school. She is open and honest. She has implemented writing and is getting some of the best results in writing in our school. She has opened her classroom for several observations this year.

"I have done some amazing work over the last 2 years with Stephanie, working on Nervous system regulation, grounding, and following my dreams. So, in April, when I had the opportunity to share this with my kids, I jumped on it. They opened up and soaked it all in. They loved the sound bowl healing, the new tools, and of course - the energy work with the horses. Stephanie is opening up a new session in her High Vibe Kids tribe starting soon. If you would like your kiddos to have some new tools under their belt, or just have better communication together, I recommend you sign up." "

"Stephanie is amazing. She is so loving and kind to the kids (and adults) in her High Vibe Family Tribe. My daughter was 9 when we did her program and by the end of each day we were with Stephanie she did not want to leave. The fact we even had my husband there for the last “dad’s day” was a great way to have him step out of his comfort zone, and to see the tools and techniques our daughter can use when her emotions are running high at home. It was a great way for us to bond as a family. I wish my daughter could have a teacher like Stephanie every day of her school year, the world needs more beautiful souls like Stephanie living in their authenticity. I love that she is sharing her gifts with young kids to show them a path of connecting to themselves. The world needs more of what Stephanie is sharing and I see a brighter future with every High Vibe Family Tribe participant. They opened up and soaked it all in. They loved the sound bowl healing, the new tools, and of course - the energy work with the horses. Stephanie is opening up a new session in her High Vibe Kids tribe starting soon. If you would like your kiddos to have some new tools under their belt, or just have better communication together, I recommend you sign up "
