Memorial Junior High School Hosts Character Education Forum

Memorial JHS in Valley Stream NY hosted a forum on character education that focused on how to evaluate the character education program in your school using the 11 Principles of Character framework which can be found on the character.org website.   The 11 Principles of Character serves as an excellent program reflection guide.  Also discussed was how to apply for a character education recognition award after the reflection process is completed.  At the conclusion of the forum school representatives shared some strategies on ways to infuse character education into your school and how they apply to each principle.
