Perhaps more important than anything you say, your behavior teaches children what really matters. Are your actions consistent with the Six Pillars of Character? Take this questionnaire (and be honest!), then do your best to improve in those areas where you come up short.
Parents are the number one educator of character, but school teachers and faculty are in the perfect position to reinforce good values and character during the school day. Teaching character improves decision making and behavior, which in turn improves the ethical quality of society.
As the ACEF continues to grow, their hope is to provide character education resources for any and all parents and teachers in need. Help ensure the future of Character Education in Arizona’s schools and make a donation today.

Be a good role model and a person of good character. Being a person who lives by the "six pillars" of character isn't always easy. But, being trustworthy, respectful, responsible, fair, caring and a good citizen will help your child understand the importance of being a person of character.
