Purpose
The purpose of character education and SOAR at Cicero Elementary is to increase positive student behavior through the use of common language and consistent expectations school-wide. We believe that by focusing on the development of a "culture of kindness," where adults are effective role models during all interactions with our students and with each other, we will improve the overall learning environment, leading to increased academic, social, and emotional growth for all.
