Manners Monday

Character Traits

In addtion to learning manners, each week we will also focus on character traits. Teaching character traits can help students develop positive personal traits, moral and ethical compasses, and the skills to navigate a complex world. It can also help students become better citizens, more confident, and more resilient.
