*CHARACTER EDUCATION
EVERY MONTH WE HIGHLIGHT A CHARACTER TRAIT THAT PROMOTES THE DEVELOPMENT OF
VALUES SUCH AS HONESTY, RESPONSIBILITY, KINDNESS, CITIZENSHIP AND OTHERS.
CHARACTER EDUCATION TRAIT FOR THE MONTH OF:
AUGUST- PURSUIT OF EXCELLENCE
SEPTEMBER- RESPONSIBILITY
OCTOBER- CITIZENSHIP
NOVEMBER- KINDNESS
DECEMBER- HONESTY
JANUARY- INTEGRITY
FEBRUARY- RESPECT
MARCH- COOPERATION
APRIL- FAIRNESS
MAY- CHARACTER EDUCATION CELEBRATION OF ALL TRAITS
PARENTS, LOOK FOR THE CHARACTER TRAIT OF EVERY MONTH AND TALK TO YOUR CHILD
ABOUT IT AND DO ACTIVITIES THAT PROMOTE THE DEVELOPMENT OF THAT VALUE.
FOE EXAMPLE, THE CHARACTER TRAIT OF THE MONTH OF AUGUST IS PURSUIT OF
EXCELLENCE.
A LOVING, SUPPORTIVE, AND FUNCTIONAL HOME ENVIRONMENT NEEDS THAT ALL
MEMBERS OF THE FAMILY TRY TO DO THEIR BEST WHEN DOING A CHORE, AN
ACTIVITY, OR SCHOOL ASSIGNMENT.
EXAMPLES OF PURSUIT OF EXCELLENCE INCLUDE DOING YOUR VERY BEST WHEN HELPING
OUT WITH FAMILY CHORES, WHEN PARTICIPATING IN SPORTS, MUSIC, DANCE, OR ART
ACTIVITIES, AND WHEN DOING SCHOOLWORK.
PARENTS, PLEASE PROMOTE THE PRACTICE OF THE PURSUIT OF EXCELLENCE AMONG
FAMILY MEMBERS THROUGH MODELING AND TEACHING WAYS TO TRY TO DO YOUR BEST AND
BE PROUD OF YOUR ACCOMPLISHMENTS.
