How does it work?

The character education program revolves around 6 pillars.  They are 
respect, responsibility, trustworthiness, caring, fairness and citizenship.  
The faculty and staff of the school work to help students integrate these 
pillars into their daily lives.  The pillars can be used in an array of 
situtations and problems students may find themselves dealing with, on a 
regular basis.

Is there anything I can do to help with the program?

Children learn best from their parents/guardians.  Therefore, it is always 
helpful to talk with your children about the 6 pillars.  Also, by modeling 
effective ways of dealing with life's situations, problems and stress you 
are providing your children with important social skills they will use 
forever.
