Student & Family Programs - Character Education
Many problems in today′s classroom can be traced to a lack of character—bullying, tardiness, disrespect for teachers, cheating, vandalism, profanity, and drug abuse—all of which hinder student achievement, school safety, and public confidence.
Character First offers a dynamic, proven, research-based character education program that trains teachers, parents, and youth workers how to integrate character into daily lessons and activities, how to reinforce positive behaviors, and how to correct inappropriate behavior in youth of all ages.
Most schools focus on one character quality per month, so a series of curriculum (9 character qualities per series) can easily fit one school year. Or you can accellerate your pace for summer camps, study at home, or special programs.
