Character In Action

May 18, 2008

The video presented here is one of the most amazing examples of “Character  In  Action” most of us have seen in recent years.  As you watch this video, you will see an incredible example of the hoped-for results of our efforts in teaching character to young people.  Granted, this has received national attention because it is just too rare an example of “doing what’s right” as one of the coaches put it.  Someone, or several people made a difference in these young women’s lives.

 If we truly believe in the importance of character education and integrate  that message into all aspects of the school day, we too can  make a significant positive difference!  We know the right decisions for most of our students.  We must be assertive in teaching them that skill.

Let’s commit to making a difference in our students’ lives by

modeling,

talking about values,

praising right decisions, and

respecting all students.
