The Counselor's Corner

Character Word of the Week:  Tolerance means to be patient with those who do not share your opinions or have ways different from yours.

According to our Character Education Program, Tolerance in School Means:

1.  I will respect others the same way I expect others to respect me.

2.  I will listen before I talk.

3.  I will wait for my turn.

4.  I will weigh what is right against what is popular.

After studying,

Hanukkah, The Seventeen Symbols of Christmas, and Kwanzaa, students have a greater appreciation and tolerance for the different beliefs and traditions.
