GOAL PROGRESS CHARACTER EDUCATION

PROGRESS UPDATE

  • All schools are focusing on our monthly character traits. Most schools have banners with the character trait of the month, daily announcements sharing information about the monthly trait, and are  rewarding students who exhibit these traits.
  • Posters with each character trait described are hung throughout our district and community. Some schools are sending home newsletters for parents to reinforce these traits, as well as advertising the trait on their marques in front of their buildings.
  • Our district weekly newsletter to staff highlights the trait of the month.

 We will form a committee comprised of administrators, teachers and guidance counselors/student services coordinators. The focus of this group will be to identify,  explore and select a character  education program or decide to create one themselves.

 

    A character education program was                  implemented August 2017.

 

 The Character Education committee met during the 2017-2019 school year in order to assess, revise and add to the current activities. They will hand off their work to
 Student Service Coordinators and counselors to continue.
