Our
School Vision is:
Ignite,
Innovate, Inspire
This is from the family handbook:
Character education is an integral part of the elementary curriculum. Through the use of explicit instruction, weekly class meetings, and monthly buddy class work, students explore and develop the qualities that help them become well-rounded, civic minded and caring students. Concord staff and students will focus our work on 7 Habits, based upon the work of The Leader in Me program.
The Leader in Me focuses on developing 7 highly effective habits in kids. Adapted from Stephen Covey's work on highly effective habits for adults, Sean Covey has developed habits that help our kids develop integrity, determination, and a caring heart. At Concord, our children will learn the 7 habits as a school. They will spend time discussing these habits on a regular basis in their classrooms, with their buddies, and the teachers will encourage a carry over into the home as well.
The 7 Habits
Habit 1: Be Proactive: You're in Charge!
Habit 2: Begin with the End in Mind: Have a Plan
Habit 3:Put First Things First:Work First, then Play
Habit 4: Think Win- Win: Everyone Can Win
Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, then be Understood: Listen Before you Talk
Habit 6: Synergize: Together is Better
Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw: Balance Feels Best
