CHARACTER EDUCATION PROGRAM
Hamilton Bicentennial Elementary School  is proud of its Character Education Program.
The program consists of four pillars: Respect, Caring, Responsibility, and Citizenship.
Each quarter, our students and staff will focus on one of the four pillars.  Classroom teachers are designing activities, based on a weekly character quote, to reinforce the positive behavior associated with each of the character pillars. Positive behavior is further reinforced by our guidance counselor who visits every class to provide valuable life skills lessons on topics such as manners, bullying, and conflict resolution. At the end of each quarter, the school will hold a special assembly to celebrate the completion of the pillar and to honor one student identified by each classroom teacher for best modeling the character traits in his/her daily activities.


Celebrating Integrity

HBE held the first of four Character Education awards assembly in December to recognize students for exemplifying the character trait of Integrity. Each week, a quote was read over the loud speaker and the students were challenged to be someone who acts with integrity at all times. Teachers were watching closely, and each classroom teacher chose the student that they felt exemplified integrity. The students received a certificate, a letter for their parents, and a copy of the paragraph written by the teacher that explained why the child was chosen. The Character Education program is led by HBE's counselor Mrs. Dawn Jones.

Congratulations to the following students who received the Integrity award:
