As part of our prioritization of incentives and recognition program this month we are showcasing our team member that we feel embodies so many of our teams core values daily and most importantly the value of, We Put Students First, as a tremendous SLP. We want to thank Emily for being such a valuable team member, bringing so much positivity and joy. What does the team and schools think of her?
As the country is starting to open up, we are focused on the long-term good that is happening in school communities everywhere through the adoption of online learning. Here’s how we have responded to the crisis as a company.
As a parent, are you asking yourself…. “How can I be a parent and a teacher?” That is a common question these days and one that can be especially difficult if your child has a disability. Focus, behavior, and learning differences can all play a factor in how to successfully facilitate learning from home. Structure and expectations at home are different from school. How do I, as a parent, transition my child to on-line learning with minimal stress and frustration? Below are some tips to help you as your role changes from parent to teacher and the environment changes from school to home.
As an educational community, many of us are venturing into an unknown world of distance learning and are adapting to meet family and student needs on the fly. School districts are expanding to an online instructional model where students are attending speech and language sessions from their new learning environment, home. Naturally, this can send everyone involved into an information-seeking frenzy to guide practices through this time of transition.
Whether you are a building administrator, director of special education, superintendent, or an educator interested in innovative learning approaches, extra time is something we know you don’t have. That’s why we created this shortlist of what you need to know to consider online speech therapy as a resource to help meet the needs of your students.
In 2020, we are going to hit the ground running. All of our company-wide OKRs have owners, and this is a team effort we can't wait to begin.
New Years brings so many opportunities for reflection and growth. This year is particularly special because it is not only a new year but a new decade! As our team reflects on the past year and sets goals for 2020 we are filled with gratitude towards those who have made an impact on our mission. MIYO Health was founded this past year so 2019 will not be forgotten.
This Thanksgiving as we take a moment to reflect, we are so thankful for family, health, happiness, well being, time with friends from far away, and new beginnings.
It is easy for gratitude to be something that lies on the back burner of this holiday as we are busy traveling or preparing massive amounts of food, but here is some inspiration from our team for a few seconds of pause. 🙏
Looking to start a new Thanksgiving tradition? Here are some of our favorites.
Going on a family run before Thanksgiving meal
Watching the National Lampoons Christmas Vacation with family
Cooking while watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade
Going to a local parade (Apparently our team really likes parades!)
As we know, the practice of gratitude makes you happier, healthier, and more productive, which is exactly what we want to channel as we close out the year and plan for 2020!
As we celebrated Women’s Entrepreneurship Day this week, I thought it would be fun to share the beginnings of my entrepreneurial journey with you and give perspective to how our Vision and Core Values were established. I won’t recount charging my parents for doing their laundry or running a nail salon under the stairwell in my childhood home, but it does go back to rural Missouri.
Your special education team is made up of some of the most talented, hardest-working educators in your schools. Maybe anywhere. But burnout is real and, from time to time, even the best teams need a little relief.

Back-to-school is a stressful time for all students. For students with disabilities that stress can take a heavy toll on academic progress. In some cases, researchers say, it can do lasting psychological harm.
