Happy Holidays!

From everybody here at Crosby, I hope everyone has a delightful Holiday break! See some of you guys next year!!

HLMS LOGO CONTEST Hey Guys! We need a new logo! Help the HLMS Program at Crosby Scholars design a new logo for the program! We're halfway through our sophomore year of the program and we figured we would need something that would identify who we are and what our goals encapsulate! Now, over here we believe in crediting the artist responsible for their artwork, so submit your design and fill out the form to receive full credit! This logo should include the following:

- The Crosby Logo in some fashion.

- Something calling or referencing Hispanic/Latino culture.

- Incorporate our Primary or secondary brand colors; red, white, black or blue, orange, and green.

- Must be, and I'm sure y'all know this, but it must be school appropriate. Submissions that have any bad stuff will not be considered for the contest.

That's it! I am very excited to see what our artists have in store for us here at the office.

Scan the QR Code to submit your design!!!

2 SIMPLE STEPS FOR

LESS STRESS Every year stress seems to be higher around this time. Between having to buy Christmas gifts, college applications, or just being a student. Here a few tips and tricks to lower your stress and relax during this holiday season and into the new year:

01

Wishing my friends a very pleasant 2022

BREATHE It's important to take a moment to just...breathe. Controlling one's breath. Try the 4, 6, 8 method breathe in for 4, hold for 6, and breathe out for 8! This is guaranteed to calm you down and can also help fall asleep!

02

DO STUFF Engage in activities you thoroughly enjoy doing. Participating in activities that bring you joy. Whatever they may be, whatever makes you happy do it. You'll feel alot better focusing and taking time for yourself.

Check out this video to learn a little more about how to reduce stress.

These tips are all valid and a few I follow myself.
