Here at Vassar Road Elementary School character education has a prominent 
role in the lives of the students. Through a unique character education 
program, students engage in a multitude of activities to promote acts of 
kindness, good citizenship and tasks that develop skills and strategies to 
become good problem solvers. All students will recognize the worth, quality, 
and importance of themselves, other people and their community.

All students will:

Respect themselves and others 
  Value personal property   
  Work together for the benefit of the school community 
  Manage and control behaviors to participate as a good citizen   
  Value and recognize individual differences 
  Exhibit qualities of good citizenship, sportsmanship and fairness

Character Education plays an important role in our school culture.  The S.L.T. selected the five virtues 
listed below which represent virtues our K-3 students could easily understand and assimilate into their 
daily lives. This year’s selections include:  
September/October                       friendship      
November/December                    caring   
January/February                           respect
March/April                                    trust 
May/June                                        loyalty

Another part of the character education project the S.L.T. adopted is it Vassar Road STARS project.  One 
student per class per month is nominated by the classroom teacher.  Students are chosen for:   
displaying a good sense of citizenship and character education values (friendship caring, respect, trust, 
loyalty) making productive use of independent time (not associated with recess) and pursue activities 
connected to learning demonstrating a commitment to education through determination, focus, and 
responsibility for doing all assignments
