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.
