Marrington Elementary Virtue of the Month: Self-Discipline/Decision Making

Marrington Elementary School has a very special Character Education Program.    It is called “Virtue of the Month.”  Each month, the teachers select a child that best demonstrates a specific Character Virtue that we have learned about in Classroom Guidance.  A letter is sent home to the parents, informing them that their child has been honored!  The featured virtue for the month of January was “Self-Discipline,” which translates to the child in each class who makes the best decisions.   Each child received a certificate and a special pencil. The recipients are also featured on a Virtue of the Month bulletin board located in the hall in front of the cafeteria.  Self-Discipline is a virtue that will serve children well throughout their lives.  In school, a job or in life, having self-discipline and the ability to make great decisions are wonderful qualities that will always be recognized and rewarded. 

                                                                       

The “SELF-DISCIPLINE” Virtue of the Month winners for the month of January were:
