The BRMS Grief Share student club received a mental health grant through the Rush County Community Foundation's Dave Kehl Memorial Fund to provide trauma-informed mindfulness techniques and yoga taught by Ms. Shlyla Sharp through May 2025. The RCCF's generous support will allow grieving students to learn from Shyla, a BRMS and RCHS alumni and certified 500-hour yoga teacher specializing in trauma-informed mindfulness techniques. BRMS Grief Share is led by Jessica Mastin, BRMS Student Assistance Counselor in partnership with Mrs. Courtney Caldwell, Centerstone Care Specialist. Shyla is also involved in the Rushville community by teaching yoga classes sponsored by the Rushville Parks Department. Shyla's local yoga classes are held at the Booker T. Washington building, 525 E 7th St in Rushville on Mondays from 6 - 7 PM. BRMS is truly grateful for the support from the Dave Kehl family and for Shyla's interest in making a positive impact in the lives of Rush County's students!
