An Integrated, Interdisciplinary, Thematic, Standards-based Unit on Character Education. In today's society, there is a breakdown of basic family structures and community value systems. As a result, moral and ethical behaviors are on the decline and there is an increase in violence in the community as well as within school systems which has detrimental effects on the learning environment. Character education will identify and foster, in students, positive attributes which will include; respect, responsibility, cooperation, honesty, integrity, caring, fairness, perseverance, and citizenship. These qualities will empower students to discover, create, develop and demonstrate life skills necessary to become productive and responsible members of society and to foster new opportunities for positive interactions and collaboration with peers.
