Incorporating Character into Our Curriculum

During the school year, Saint Rose Catholic School incorporates a program of Character Education into our standard curriculum.

Thomas Lickona, author of Educating for Character, points out that the long term success of any values' education depends on “...the extent to which families and communities join schools in a common effort to meet the needs of children and foster their healthy development.”

The values being taught as part of our program are:

  • Respect, Acceptance, Kindness, Responsibility, Self-discipline, Reliability
  • Compassion, Service, Generosity, Faith, Hope, Trust, Love
  • Commitment, Loyalty, Effort, Humor, Friendship, Sincerity, Joy
  • Wisdom, Knowledge, Insight, Health, Holistic Living, Serenity, Enthusiasm

The Buddy Program

Our Buddy Program pairs older children with young students to be a “Big Buddy” for the school year.  Each week, Big Buddies join their Little Buddies in classroom activities or special learning projects, offering older students an opportunity to learn to mentor and model positive behavior.  Little Buddies enjoy the attention and support from older students, and are especially thrilled with a “Hi” on the playground.
