STUDENTS LEARN HOW CHARACTER COUNTS

(01/14/2006)

Pat Radabaugh, Savannah Rogers, and Whitney Adams The Calhoun County Community Educational Outreach Service (CEOS, formerly Extension Homemakers) along with WVU Extension Service will be conducting a six week "Character Counts" program during the after school "Heads Up" program at Pleasant Hill Elementary School. Character Counts deals with six important character traits: trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring and citizenship. Each pillar of character will be defined by using role-play, skits, story time, crafts and other activities to impress upon the children how important it is to have good character traits. The topic for January 9th, was trustworthiness. Sue Collins, Emily Gainer, Rush Run CEOS, and Pat Radabaugh, Marcia Swisher, Pleasant Hill CEOS taught the class. During the class, the instructors had as much fun as the children. Each child took home a letter explaining the program to their parents and a handout on trustworthiness to color. The next class will be January 23rd, the topic will be respect. Sue Collins, Pat Radabaugh, Tea Boatright, Cierra Miller, Emily Gainer, Savannah Rogers, Bobbi Elsewick, and Whitney Adams
