South Dakota School Partnerships
The South Dakota Character Education
Partnership grant was received during the summer of 2001. The goals for
the grant are:
- To establish high quality character education implementation sites
that embrace the virtues that are embodied in SD Code, as well as
other character traits identified by the local community, in a
manner which effectively models the principles of good character
through the actions of school staff and students.
- To develop the lifelong skills and ethical behaviors necessary to
be contributing citizens in a democratic society by integrating
character education practices within the total school and community.
- To effectively link existing local, state and federal resources
that merge effective school research and character development in a
caring community.
- To maintain or improve student academic achievement while
expanding student understanding of, commitment to, and action upon
core ethical values.
