Character Education
What is Character Education?
-
Teaching students how to take
responsibility for their actions
and to treat others with
respect.
-
Showing students that there are
specific payoffs in life for
doing those things.
-
Modeling that behavior for
students every second that they
are with us during the day, and
expecting them to do the same.
-
Creating an atmosphere at school
where students can safely
practice those behaviors until
such behavior becomes the norm.
