Character Education holds that widely shared, pivotally important, core ethical values- such as our 6 Pillars of Character - Caring , Fairness , Trustworthiness , Citizenship , Responsibility , and Respect for self and others as well as performance values of hard work, positive attitude , self-discipline, perseverance and commitment to excellence -form the basis of good character.The Pinelands Regional School District's character education program embraces these values, defines them in terms of behaviors that can be observed in the life of the school, models these values, studies and discusses them, uses them as the basis of human relations in the school, celebrates their manifestations in the school and community, and holds all school members accountable to standards of conduct consistent with the core values.
