The Wellness Committee has invited Heathcorp for a Cafe O'Yea on Wednesday, January 17th from 12-12:30pm. To align with the wellness theme of “Spark to Serve” and getting students involved in community service, they’ll be having students decorate a card and/or writing a short, positive message. They’ll collect all the cards across the different schools they go to and send them to their contacts to pass along to the VA Hospital and/or a care home for the elderly. They will provide all the supplies and materials needed for the activity.

Come and join us for Family Game Night!!! We will have various board games, card games, roleplaying games, and more for students and their families to join in on. This is a great opportunity to meet other MEA families and celebrate the end of the first semester.

Parents, please be onhand promptly at 7:00 pm to pick up your student, as supervision will not be available after the event has ended.

Month 5 is all about Habit 4, Think Win-Win. It is a belief that there are enough good things for everyone; it is an abundant way of thinking. Think Win-Win is being happy for others when good things happen to them. I balance courage for getting what I want with consideration for what others want.
