POSITIVE EDUCATION PROJECT

Transforming Schools, Empowering Teachers, Inspiring Students

Today's school environment faces some serious challenges.

Students and teachers need more than just academics to succeed. Studies show:

  • Teen suicide rates in Utah have more than doubled in just 4 years.
  • Only 50% of students feel engaged in school, dropping to just 33% by 11th grade.
  • 75% of students report feeling tired, stressed, or bored at school.

There is hope in elevating education and well-being.

The key to transforming our schools lies in Positive Education, a powerful approach that integrates well-being, character, and academics. Built on the proven principles of Positive Psychology (the ‘Science of Happiness’), Positive Education:

  • Builds optimism, resilience, and engagement for lasting success.
  • Inspires teachers and students through character strengths.
  • Strengthens the connection between teaching and learning.

Hello, I'm Jane!

As a clinical social worker, former teacher, Positive Education Coach, and presenter, I’m passionate about teaching the ‘Science of Happiness’ to help individuals and organizations thrive.

In 2016, I was invited to present Positive Psychology to university students in China and attended the first IPEN Conference in Dallas, connecting with global Positive Education advocates.

I’ve worked with school faculties, students, businesses, youth groups, and conventions, and taught an intensive Positive Psychology course to high schoolers.

Together, we can equip educators, parents, and students with the skills to flourish!
