JOINT BASE CHARLESTON –
Marrington Elementary School recently instituted a new program titled, "Virtue of the Month."
Each month, teachers select children from their classes who best demonstrate a specific character virtue which the students have learned about during classroom guidance. After their selection, a letter is sent home to the parents, informing them that their child has been honored.
The first featured Virtue of the Month was "Respect," and at a special awards assembly, each child received a certificate and a button with his or her "virtue" on it.
Being respectful is a virtue which will serve children throughout their lives, whether in school, a job, or family life. The children have demonstrated an understanding that being respectful will always be appreciated, recognized and rewarded.
