Character Education

At York School our kids have a lot of "character".  Why you may ask? Every month we select a different character trait to focus on.  These traits are embedded in our classroom teaching.  We award students with "stars" which are prominently displayed at the front of the school on our Character Board.  These stars have specific details as to why they have been given.  They are given to students who demonstrate the chosen trait that month.  We recognize students at our monthly assembly.  

Some examples of traits focused on are; Friendship, Courtesy, Self-Respect, Integrity, Kindness, Cooperation, Citizenship and Hardworking.
