character ed

Character education is one of the most valuable tools you can teach and model to your children. At my school, we have a new character word each month and our counselor comes in for visits to teach the value of each character word. We have Character Ed assemblies and give our character slips for our students. Along with our character education program, we have a structured behavior intervention program that places an emphasis on acceptance and regaining the child's responsibility on themselves. I think that we, as educators, have a tough job when it comes to teaching character and acceptable behaviors; however, it is well worth it in the long run. What would our world be like if we weren't attempting to place these morals in our students?
