The 3 Hurts:
When you talk to me, I will try to keep conversations confidential unless you tell me about the “3 Hurts”:
You hurt yourself
You hurt someone else
Someone hurts you
I may want to talk to your teacher if you tell me about a school problem, but I will discuss this with you first.
This month's theme: Do Good December - Kindness
This has been another difficult year of uncertainty and ups and downs for many of us. Kindness is contagious, and helping others has been proven to make us feel better too! Let's try to focus on being generous with our time and attention rather than money - it's free and better for everyone, as well as our planet!
Do Things For Others
Helping others is not only good for them and a good thing to do, it also makes us happier and healthier too. Giving also connects us to others, creating stronger communities and helping to build a happier society for everyone. And it's not all about money - we can also give our time, ideas and energy. So if you want to feel good, do good!Â

Hello MOI Eagles!
Winter Break is finally here! That means it’s time to rest, recharge, and enjoy your time off from school. Whether you’re hanging out with family, playing games, watching movies, or just relaxing, I hope your break is fun and peaceful.
Make sure to check out the slide deck that was shared with you! It has fun activities, creative ideas, and other resources you can try during your break. You don’t have to do them all—just pick what sounds fun to you
Also, don’t forget about self-care:
Get plenty of sleep
Take breaks from screens
Go outside or move your body
Take deep breaths when you feel stressed
Talk to someone you trust if you need help!
Winter break is a great time to reset and take care of your mind and body. We are so proud of all the effort you’ve put in this year.
 You’ve worked hard this semester, and you deserve some rest!
Enjoy your break, stay safe, and I can’t wait to see you when we’re back in 2026!
Happy Holidays
Ms. Gardea and Mr. Low
