The local board just confirmed they are officially adding character education to the district curriculum. I honestly never imagined this would actually happen, and this victory belongs entirely to all of you who pushed for this change. Let us keep an eye on how these programs roll out as we …

Our Children Are The Future... What Will You Do To Make Sure They Have One?

Considering the steady increase of crime and violence within society and throughout the world, one can only imagine what kind of future our children will have. Will they even have a future? As parents, caretakers and members of society, we have the responsibility to ensure that this generation of children grow up in a peaceful environment; one without crime and violence. How is this possible?

We teach math, science, English, reading, social studies, history, and many more subjects in school. Why not also teach them the skills necessary to effectively and respectfully interact with each other? Basic fundamentals, such as the importance of respecting ourselves, others and the environment are presently missing from our schools. If character education was diligently taught in ALL schools today, our children would grow up to be moral, responsible, productive members of society, and our world would become a wonderful place, once again.

This is our mission, and if you sign our petition you will help make our dream a reality.

As a victim of the poor social School programs in California in the 90's. The Peaceful Solution has changed my whole life's interaction in regard to all i come in contact with. All Schools in our world today need the Peaceful Solution foundation to help our children succeed among the growing violence we see in our world.

The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character - that is the goal of true education. ~Martin Luther King, Jr.

The emphasis needs to be on character in the teaching of children.... Its something we use every day unlike some subjects we learn in school. We definitely need Character Education in the schools.

Recent studies on children with ADHD are now proving that behavioral training (a big part of character education) helps children a lot more then medications. Just imagine if the whole world had this, everyone would be aware of themselves and have respect and self-control... We need this program and we need character education!

I am so pleased that you're program is being offered to schools to help them address the violence, disrespect, and bullying our children and the teachers face everyday. This program has helped me deal with these same problems in my life. It is helping me respect myself and this in turn is heIping me show more respect to others

This program has helped me to be the parent my children need. Now when they will grow up to be the leaders of our future, I know they will make decisions that will benefit our community and the world around us.
