Students of the Month: Responsibility CCS-America’s classical curriculum includes a strong emphasis on virtue. Each month, students are recognized for displaying a certain character trait that they explore in the classroom and practice in their daily lives. This trait is also recited daily as a part of the school Pledge. Responsibility was August’s character trait. Responsible students take ownership of their thoughts, words, and actions. This virtue is reflected in the Pledge as “I Pledge to keep myself healthy in body, mind, and spirit.” Students embody these words by taking care of themselves, striving for excellence, and fulfilling their duties. Congratulations to all CCS-A students who showed exceptional responsibility. Check out August’s honorees using the links below! |
