Van Gogh Street School
Pillars of Character
As you look through each month of the school calendar (here), you will see a “Pillar of Good Character” listed at the beginning of each month. These are values that all our Van Gogh students and families should try to follow. For more information
on the pillars, visit http://charactercounts.org/sixpillars.html
Each month, we will recognize those students that have shown themselves to be great examples of that month’s pillar. Those selected as Student of the Month will be honored at a brief celebration on the dates listed. Re-enforcing these qualities at home will remind our students of how important they are to follow.
