Character.org Certifies 50 Schools and 2 Districts as 2022 National Schools and Districts of Character

We envision a future where honest, trustworthy, respectful people treat others as they want to be treated.

Character.org today certified 50 schools and 2 school districts as National Schools and Districts of Character.

WASHINGTON, DC, USA, May 18, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Character.org, a national advocate and leader for character development in schools and communities, today certified 50 schools and 2 school districts as National Schools and Districts of Character.

“We are pleased to announce and celebrate the schools and school districts that have earned this national recognition,” said Dr. Arthur Schwartz, President of Character.org. “Each of these schools has put in place a comprehensive approach to help students understand, care about, and consistently practice the character strengths that will help them flourish in school, in relationships, in the workplace, and as citizens.”

Since its inception, the National Schools of Character program has impacted over three million students, staff, parents, and community members. The schools and districts that apply must meet the rigorous standards articulated in Character.org’s 11 Principles Framework for Schools. Each school is assessed by a team of trained evaluators.

“There is an ethic of care at these schools,” adds Lori Soifer, who directs the Schools of Character program. “Working together with students, parents and community members, these schools are creating stronger communities focused on character.”

Character.org will honor the 2022 National Schools and Districts of Character at its next International Forum, to be held virtually, October 19-20, 2022. The complete list of the 2022 National Schools and Districts of Character is below. Learn more about the schools and districts being certified today by clicking here.
