Promising Practices
Each year, as part of the Schools of Character program, Character.org recognizes educators in the United States and elsewhere who have implemented unique, specific, and effective character education strategies. Promising Practices schools have become a significant example of effective character development and alignment with one or more of the 11 Principles framework. These schools have put in place creative approaches to help children and teens understand, care about, and consistently practice the core values that will enable them to flourish in school, in relationships, in the workplace, and as citizens.
