BECOME A SCHOOL OF CHARACTER
BECOME A SCHOOL OF CHARACTER
Character development is an essential part of a child’s education. It is not an add-on to the already full school day; but rather, it is an important ingredient that helps to shape the climate and the culture of schools. It is not merely education for life. It is life itself.
Character.org is a nonprofit, nonpartisan, nonsectarian coalition of organizations and individuals committed to fostering effective character education in schools around the country and a national advocate and leader in the character education movement.
