The JOY Framework

the experience that changes education

Empower your teachers through professional development that teaches them how to go from a jaded, overwhelmed, and “yuck” negative mindset to an authentically jazzed, optimistic, and “yes, I can” positive mindset that radiates JOY and positively impacts every facet of learning.

Kate is a ray of sunshine!

She knows how to make learning fun and engaging while exhibiting great teaching practices. It has been an honor to work alongside Kate as a coach and teacher. If you need someone who is passionate about literacy and learning, highly motivated, and dependable, Kate is your person!
