Promoting Character and Integrity
Students in Mr. Michael Maletta’s seventh-grade health class
have been learning about the six pillars of character –
trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring and
citizenship – as well as the importance of anti-bullying in their school
community. To culminate the health unit, they worked to create a
welcoming, caring and safe environment by covering the classroom walls
with posters sharing positive messages. “The posters will not only
brighten the students’ day but will serve as a reminder to be thoughtful
and respectful to each other throughout the school day and beyond,” Mr.
Maletta said.
