Character Education
The Fruits of the Spirit program is based on the nine fruits of the Spirit listed in the Bible, Galatians 5:22 of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, humility, faithfulness, and self-control.
The Fruits of the Spirit program is totally integrated into the school community and classrooms. Teachers reinforce the character traits demonstrated through each fruit and spend time in class encouraging and supporting the students as they strive to let their Fruits shine. Some examples include daily devotionals, study of student life, finding examples in the community and more.
The recognition component of the program takes place at the weekly assembly where students are awarded certificates and prizes in front of the school community. Teachers recognize students and students vote for one another. Parents and teachers all enjoy the chance to congratulate the students in their personification of a specific Fruit.
