Character Education – Power of One
(Character Education: CDE Website)
Character Education involves teaching children about basic human values including honesty, kindness, generosity, courage, freedom, equality, and respect. These truths are most readily received by children and youth from individuals they trust and admire. Our district’s Character Education Plan, “The Power of One – to Impact All” is based upon the premise that the most powerful influence in a child’s life is not a curriculum but rather a one-on-one relationship with someone they trust and admire. When we as adults, whether teachers, coaches, maintenance crew, cafeteria workers, parents, grandparents, etc., model the attributes of honesty, kindness, generosity, courage, freedom, equality, and respect and then take the time to invest in the children around us, we are using Our Power… the Power of One person to impact the youth of today.
