WE TEACH & MODEL CHARACTER EDUCATION AT CMS
Character Education for May is Trustworthiness
Trust is earned when you acknowledge your limitations and work to find ways to overcome those limitations rather than using them as an excuse. Being a trustworthy person means that your words are aligned with you intentions. Keeping your promises is a great way to foster trust. People know you will follow through and do what you promisesd to do.
