In mid-August of 2008, 27 educators and social workers representing 12 schools participated in the “Character… It starts with me” seminar. With the focus on creating classrooms and lifestyles of high character, educators were provided character-building insight, techniques, and curriculum materials for the 2008-09 school year. The educators were delighted with the seminar, giving the day a 9.5 rating out of 10, and sharing a common intention to provide more character-based praise to students. As Megan Martin, 3rd grade teacher at St. Veronica noted, “Time flew by — this was the best workshop and I have wonderful ideas to implement.”
The Why Character? two-hour session is designed for school administrators of any grade level to learn how character education creates a positive environment for learning. The workshop will be repeated on October 6, 2009. Learn more.
