Character Development

Characteristic of the month

In September the Corvette community will focus on Respect.

Respect is an attitude of caring about people and treating them with dignity.  Respect is valuing ourselves and others.  We show respect by speaking and acting with courtesy.  When we are respectful, we treat others as we would want to be treated.

Character Development at Corvette

Character development at Corvette is about helping students learn and practice positive character attributes, which will help them not only do their best, but be their best.

When we build good character, we build strong communities. In the Corvette community, character development is woven into its programs, practices and interactions. It becomes a way of life. Student success is dependent on a safe, caring and inclusive learning environment where all students feel valued. This starts by teaching our students about the value of character – respecting themselves and each other, making positive contributions to their school and community and thinking critically and creatively.

But character development is a shared responsibility. Together with the schools, family and community members must engage and cooperate to encourage student learning and maturing. Together, we can make it happen.
