Six Pillars of Character

The Six Pillars of Character help guide our students' behavior in and outside of the classroom.

August's Pillar of Character is Trustworthiness.

Trustworthiness is being honest, telling the truth, keeping promises and being loyal so people can trust you. Trustworthy people are not dishonest, and they do not cheat or steal. They have integrity and the moral courage to do the right thing and stand up for their beliefs even when it is hard. For example, trustworthy students are asked to participate in field trips off the school's campus because they can be trusted to do the right thing.
