I got a report at a conference yesterday that more public schools are adopting character development into their curricula. As you know I have been a supporter of this move for a few years. When I started there were at most only 4 other initiatives. Not only do teachers realize this is better for classroom management but also administrators may be finally realizing that studies show that charcter development results in better academic statistics. Thank goodness for those who have taken some leadership recently! Today there is a rating for public schools based on how much character development they offer. YAY!
I am continuing to suggest to CDCs that they have me in for teacher training on lesson plans for character development. I am now representing a publishing house for elementary level books in this category. Please contact me for 1) speaking engagements anywhere 2) consulting for center/school culture in Texas or 3) for vending character books in Austin, Houston, Dallas or Lubbock. Please let me know if I can be of help in anyway. Info@orgstrat.net 512-249-7629.
